Gemini maximises natural sunlight, cross ventilation and views to the harbour, while balancing shade and privacy.
The proposal comprises an 11-storey tower of 59 units and five 4-storey townhouse terraces adjoined by a podium offering generous communal outdoor space as well as 175 sqm of commercial space.
Gemini is centrally located in Wickham, an area undergoing significant change, with the site fronting three streets; Bishopsgate, Railway and Lindus. Conveniently located within the Newcastle City Centre with public transport, shopping facilities and civic open spaces abundant, the development offers the community high-amenity, well-designed, affordable housing.
The design enhances social interaction through a generous and inviting entry foyer as well as common lobby spaces while also responding to the adjacent Village Hub through contextually appropriate built form.
