Nestled among the leafy streets of Canberra's inner north, the Loft House addition delivers a warm, light filled living space with a 'lofty' retreat above. Located behind a compact 1950's Riley Newsum prefabricated house, the addition emerges up into the skyline with a sympathetic gable form. With it's high raked ceilings and exposed rafters, the addition remains true to the arts and crafts character of the existing house.
Situated on a leafy suburban site, the Ribbon House has been carefully wrapped around the existing established trees to enhance the indoor-outdoor connection. A mix of natural timber and white and black washed timber cladding reduces the scale of the two-storey form, peeling off in places, much like a ribbon on a box.
The Courtyard House is a modestly designed dwelling set in the leafy suburb of Curtin. At the heart of the design is the central Japanese inspired courtyard to which all the living areas and walkways open into. The green roofed central core is flanked by two skillion roofed buildings that provide high raked ceilings to the living areas and bedrooms.
Charred Timber House is a robust family home, designed over a series of levels that follow the steep slope of the Ainslie site. It's signature elements are the Shou Sugi Ban cladding, which was beautifully installed by the owner, and a recycled hardwood slatted screen to the carport, which was made from the roof battens of the original cottage.
