The Two Sisters development in North Melbourne features 50 square metre apartments and townhouses, significantly smaller than the average Australian home. Developers Eve and Michelle Pickering aimed to reduce costs and environmental impact.

The project, designed by Breathe, minimizes embodied carbon, energy use, and costs. It includes two-story units with private courtyards and no car parks to further limit emissions. The design incorporates sustainable materials, including low carbon cement and carbon neutral bricks. The project will open for public viewing on May 17 during Sustainable House Day.
