Dadirri draws on how we can target the loneliness endemic in both elderly and younger generations by experimenting with different housing models. This includes a mixed-use, built-to-rent and co-housing scheme which also includes a residential aged care unit to promote the concept of ageing in place.

The project is situated at 75 Mary Street, more commonly known as Precinct 75. The current ground floor masterplan was investigated and the opportunity to create a 15-minute walkable neighbourhood from St Peters and Sydenham train stations, and the upcoming metro line, was explored.
