NEW RESIDENCES AND GREEN SPACES INFLUENCED BY NATURE AND INFORMED BY HISTORY.

Welcome home to The Canopy on Normanby, an architect-designed sustainable community in South Melbourne surrounded by new schools, historic markets, tucked-away cafés and the beaches of Port Phillip Bay.

Located on the corner of Normanby Road and Johnson Street in South Melbourne, designed by Hayball Architecture and developed by Gamuda Land, the mixed-use building has been mindfully planned. Every element of the spacious, bright residences has been thoughtfully brought together, guided by a biophilic philosophy and progressive sustainability targets.

Organised around a lush green park and with rich greenery on the façade, roof, podium and ground level, The Canopy is a spacious and peaceful address to grow and thrive.

Drawn to the famous market, South Melbourne is a favoured place for growing families, couples and young professionals. The area continues to grow and evolve. Neighbouring Fishermans Bend is Melbourne’s largest urban renewal project and is estimated to be home to 80,000 residents by 2050.

vision

A deep connection to the land is imbued throughout The Canopy via biophilic and sustainable philosophies. The building design prioritises outdoor spaces for people to work, gather, dine and relax. The extensive greenery that makes The Canopy so visually striking also reduces noise and improves air quality in the naturally lit residences.

Biophilic practices have also been shown to reduce stress, improve cognitive function, stimulate wellbeing and strengthen communities.

nature and home

Achieving a 5 Star Green Star sustainability rating and 7.5 Average NatHERS rating informs the biophilic design practices of The Canopy.

Connecting residences with nature, designing for natural light and cross-flow ventilation and minimised gas usage reduces the building’s overall carbon footprint and creates a low-carbon community with improved health, liveability and lifestyle benefits.

Optimised energy efficiency also creates value for owners and investors, contributing to lower operational and maintenance costs and long-term financial savings. The Canopy features the first Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) in a residential project in Melbourne, designed to reduce hot water bills and space heating.
