Batch House Apartments | Mark Drury & Partners Pty Ltd Architects

The Batch House Apartments are a product of converting an existing warehouse located in arguably one of Hobart’s most vibrant and highly sought after suburbs, North Hobart.

Twelve apartments comprising of car park at ground level, living on the first floor level and sleeping on the second floor level, have been methodically placed within the original building’s shell. A new but simple material palette has been meticulously detailed to respect and seamlessly stitch the new with the original.

With the existing buildings boundary walls restricting any ability to provide external windows, a series of internal open light wells and courtyards vertically penetrate each apartment’s floor plates, delivering an abundance of natural light, ventilation and extensions of the living spaces.

The finished product brings a new chapter to the life of this existing building and is one which has been endorsed by its new owners/occupants and embraced by the local community.
