Abstract
- The article reports that Cowper Street Housing's rose-coloured facade references a nearby block of social housing terraces, while its staggered glazing pattern and perforated panels reinterpret their traditional fenestration. It mentions that terracotta-coloured facade directly references a block of social housing terraces nearby and the facade mimics the fenestration of these traditional terraces, while flattening out the elevation by omitting verandahs and balustrades.
