The Martin Place Metro Station, a pivotal component of Sydney's expansive Metro City & Southwest project, stands as a testament to modern urban infrastructure and design. Situated in the heart of Sydney's financial district, this station not only serves as a critical transit hub but also exemplifies the integration of functionality and aesthetics in public transport facilities.

Among its typical neighbouring houses, 73M Jalan Senang that stands on a corner land plot appears unique with its monolithic look. Designed by ipli Architects, the house is a resemblance of the simple, ubiquitous gabled-roof house icon. Instead of defining the each part of the house differently, the building displays a unified look from the bottom to the top as if the shape is carved from a massive rectangular block. From its voluminous exterior, multiple randomly placed square openings create a slight giveaway of a light and porous interior.

Having a brainwave that immediately and cost-effectively solves a house construction problem is a great feeling. You shout ‘Yesss!’ and the world is suddenly a better place.
