The project introduces a bold, fresh energy to Essendon, crafted with a selection of modern, sustainable, and practical external finishes, which collectively work in harmony to present an uncompromising air of quality.
A contemporary building offering sleek and sophisticated forms, Tekna features articulated facades incorporating a variety of fenestration elements and individual glazed balconies in combination with a selection of architectural projections and linear elements.
Tekna is designed to mirror everything that is great about Essendon, comprising of materials and colours selected to complement Russell Street's existing streetscape. At once, Tekna is influenced by and made for its dynamic and sought-after landscape, presenting a new and exciting face for the area's future. Beyond a vibrant facade are homes that achieve balance between convenience and aesthetic.
There is something satisfyingly serene that comes with a lack of clutter. Tekna's bathrooms are created in line with the philosophy that less is really more. White, bright and lively spaces are designed to make the process of getting ready for the day and unwinding following a long one both simple and effortless, featuring smartly integrated storage spaces. Similarly, Tekna's bedrooms are formed with layers of materials and fabrics that align with the theme of comfort. A neutral yet warm colour palette anchors the bedroom in an all-encompassing sense of tranquillity, to create a setting of ultimate rejuvenation.
Essendon stands as a gleeful domain ready to serve for any day one sets out to have. A Saturday or Sunday may involve a relaxed brunch at one of the suburb's endless number of cafes, a few hours spent exploring the Maribyrnong River on a bike, or finding natural rejuvenation at one of the area's many, perfectly preened parklands.
