We're excited to be collaborating with Urbis on the Missing Middle Design Guide for the ACT.
The 'missing middle' refers to low scale development that provides housing diversity and supply.
Canberra is growing and it's critical that we focus on urban infill to limit the city's footprint. We need a mix of housing to suit the different needs of our communities - row housing, lofts, low rise apartment buildings, dual occupancies and other smart configurations that limit urban sprawl and create a more compact bush capital. This is an opportunity to rethink the suburban structure of the ACT and create more dense and walkable streets that are close to public transport.
We look forward to sharing more about this project and our ongoing work with the ACT Government.
