The site is the same as that of the old library and the one before that: a short walk from the ferry terminal, on the edge of a reserve, at the corner where the main street and the marine parade meet. A library has been there for as long as has Devonport.

Hotel Dago, built in 1954, one of the abandoned old buildings, has recently been transformed into a café.

Muhammad Sagitha of ArMS pointed out that the inspiration behind the project’s name was from the angled and layered arrangement of basalt pieces that resembles animal scales.

Normally, within an apartment unit or a house, there should be at least an enclosed room with a door separated from the rest of the unit’s interior. In a project named after the sole owner, Alex, Spacedge Designs challenges the need of a door, even the need of a separated room in the first place. “In a space for one, there is technically no need for doors within the flat,” says William Chan of Spacedge Designs.
