Completed in 2001, Napier Street Housing is a residential complex in Fitzroy, Victoria, designed by Kerstin Thompson Architects. The design was awarded the RAIA Residential Multiple Award in 2002. The project is a medium-density development which articulates many of Kerstin Thompson's architectural ideologies regarding ideas on the "interstitial" as a mode of thinking around architecture, and a preference for hybrid and complex solutions rather than single expressions. These ideologies resulted in two strong themes, a distinctive entanglement with the idea of context and a creative approach towards dwelling configurations. == Description == The personnel involved in the project include Kerstin Thompson, Michael Archibald and Simone Koch. The design includes eleven dwellings and each one includes a generous roof terrace and flexible options for occupation. The terraces are arrested at two corners by brick skillions, which, along with the use of materials, create a sense of continuity within the design. Running parallel to the rear of the terraces, four dwellings are arranged in two serial lines of extruded three-storey volumes. Large brick faces hover over the street, giving a visual connection to the larger brick forms beyond. The return sides of the radically sloping brick walls reconnect them to the scale of the five intervening terraces. On the lane-way corner, this system is reversed so that the terraces contrast in height to the reversed inclination of the skillion. The project is surrounded at street level by fine-gauge steel fencing which protects small threshold gardens at each dwelling's entry.
