Responding to the eclectic demographic mix of Fremantle iph proposed 3 distinctly different apartment types with each capturing a different fragment of the historic Fremantle city. To carefully integrate in to the historic Fremantle context the facades are based on the existing immediate context, common qualities of historic Fremantle West End and memories of the past that now exist only in photographic documentation. We have proposed the re-introduction of lost image of the adjacent corner streetscape, a photo of the former Oriana art deco theatre. The intent is to re-instate the historic image as a way of dissolving the proposed building into the past as the image continues around the building it is stretched and distorted to the point that it becomes a shadow of the actual photograph. The main street façade develops and abstracts qualities of density, detailing and weathering of the only remaining adjacent historic building, Victoria Hall from 1897. At ground level we are introducing a collection of cast concrete artifacts, everyday objects that are relevant to the port of Fremantle that potentially capture the everyday living in a surprising way. We strongly believe that any new intervention whilst being of a modern nature must provide a solution that understands and responds to the complex and often contradictory nature of past and present contexts.
