My clients owned and ran an Ampol service station on this site for thirty years before decommissioning it and subdividing it while maintaining it on the corner for themselves. With the local community fondly remembering their service, the memory of the former petrol station is embodied in the building fabric through various means such as the detailed concrete projections which reference the old Ampol logo, the use of colored glass which references the colors of petrol and engine oil, the balustrade inspired by the spokes of a car wheel and the letterbox that wobbles upon a vehicle suspension spring to the delight of the owners and the postie.
