Trellis System,
Lygon Street Apartments VIC

Bespoke Wire & Rope was engaged by Cobild, Milieu, and Fieldwork Architects to design and install a trellis system for Lygon Street Apartments in Brunswick. The system included internal cables spanning slab-to-slab across the central void and external trellises fixed to the façade, providing long-term support for climbing plants to establish across the building.

Location: 121 Lygon St, Brunswick VIC

Completion Date: June 2023

Client: Milieu

Builder: Cobild

Architect: Fieldwork

Our Scope

Bespoke supplied and installed stainless steel trellis cables fixed with AWG stand-offs and custom fabricated angles provided by others. Chemically and mechanically anchored eyelets were used to achieve a 100mm offset from the slab edges, allowing vertical trellis cables to run slab-to-slab within the building’s central void.

Installation involved scaffolding for internal works and a tracked scissor lift for external access.

The trellis system was installed to:

  • Support climbing plants internally and externally

  • Provide a green infrastructure solution that complements the building design

  • Deliver offset cable spans with precise anchoring methods

  • Ensure durability and minimal maintenance requirements

This project highlights Bespoke’s ability to deliver trellis systems that integrate seamlessly into multi-residential developments.
