The Surry Hills Village Project is a transformative endeavor that promises to gentrify and revitalize the Surry Hills area. Spearheading the meticulous facade design is Apex Facade Design, ensuring both compliance with essential waterproofing standards and the implementation of a lightweight Empire click system instead of a traditional brick facade.
The project boasts multiple distinct structures, each serving a unique purpose with its own construction approach and facade aesthetic. The residential space stands as an impressive CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) structure, fortified against water intrusion by ProctorPassive Wraptite SA, while the facade substructure relies on the Nvelope NV1 sub framing system.
On the other hand, the Hotel and retail space embrace a combination of ProctorPassive Wraptite SA and ProctorPassive Rainscreen IT, showcasing a thoughtful blend of innovation and functionality.
The Surry Hills Village Project promises to be a harmonious blend of contemporary architecture and practical solutions, breathing new life into this vibrant neighborhood.

About Nvelope NV1
NV1 is the NVELOPE subframe system for vertical cladding applications. NVELOPE ‘T’ and ‘L’ profiles are fixed using NVELOPE support brackets, fixed through a series of fixed and sliding points. NVELOPE flexible point brackets absorb wind loading and allow for expansion and contraction. NVELOPE fixed point brackets absorb the vertical dead loads. NVELOPE bracket spacing is determined by cladding options such as the dimensions and weight of the façade cladding, local wind loads and cladding zone.
