Torbreck home units
The Torbreck Home Units were the first high-rise and mix-use residential development in Queensland, Australia. These heritage-listed home units are located at 182 Dornoch Terrace, Highgate Hill, Brisbane. Designed by architects Aubrey Job and Robert Froud (Job and Froud Architects), construction began in 1957 and was completed three years later in 1960. The project acquired the name 'Torbreck' to recognise a small, gabled timber cottage that previously occupied the site (called Torbreck).
== Description ==
Torbreck is a soft-modernist high-rise building, located between Dornoch Terrace and Chermside Street, on approximately 6,521m2 (70,191.5 sq. feet) of land. The building itself covers approximately 1,749.15m2 of land (18,827.7 sq. feet), with 150 individual units, totalling 19,892.78m2 in floor area. It consists of two adjoining components: an eighteen storey, south-facing Tower Block, and a long, narrow, eight storey north-facing Garden Block. The former features panoramic views of Brisbane city, while the latter overlooks a landscaped garden and communal swimming pool.〔 The immediate surrounds are well vegetated, with the plants providing shade for the outdoor living areas and car park. Each unit in Torbreck has at least one balcony, which include planter boxes and glass balustrades. Torbreck is constructed from concrete and brick, with expressive detailing in brickwork, stone and timber, to address the domestic scale.The development was originally designed to provide social and public amenity with a mix-used ground floor, having facilities such as shops and restaurants, these were never built.
