Click-on Battens in Ivanhoe Apartments | Sculptform

Designed by Martino Leah Architects and located in Ivanhoe, Melbourne, Australia, this apartment building uses Sculptform's Click-on Battens in the facade and interiors. The building comprises a three-level basement, ground floor retail outlets, two levels of offices, and apartments on the two upper levels.

The building is bordered on three sides by busy public roads which posed logistical challenges with its construction. However, the speed and ease of installing Click-on Battens mitigated this issue on the upper levels.

The curved facade is clad in Sculptform aluminum Click-on Battens. They are installed on Sculptform's standard and curved tracks which were delivered to the site in a flexible state so that they were able to be wrapped around the substrate for a perfect fit. Batten clips were factory fixed to the tracks at the specified spacing sequence which helped to save time installing on-site. Battens were simply push-clicked onto mounting tracks that are concealed behind the battens.
