HIP V. HYPE: 2023 Finalist – Sustainable places
Last updated: 27 October 2023
Carbon neutral in construction and set up operation, Ferrars and York by HIP V. HYPE is powered 100% by Green Power. The project comprises 22 carbon-neutral apartments in South Melbourne with an average energy rating of 8.6 stars, with the highest performing apartment achieving 9.3 stars out of 10.
Located on a narrow piece of land adjacent to the South Melbourne light rail and 100m from South Melbourne Market, the project is an exemplar of the potential for responsible use of under-utilised land in our cities.
Ferrars and York apartments provide more comfort for residents via consistent air temperatures, better acoustic performance, lower energy bills and a lower carbon footprint.
