Gathering House
Positioning the home as a conduit for family and togetherness, Gathering House is expanded to facilitate an open and engaging residential experience, melding both old and new within the one generous site. Taking references from the existing formal silhouette and materiality already in place, the focus became on extruding the original form while imbedding new principles of increased scale and openness throughout. Binding the interior to the larger landscape was also key, driving clear visual connections between inside and out and allowing the functions of the home to spill out into dedicated outdoor entertaining areas. The home celebrates coming together, dotted with moments of compression and release to align with varying levels of passive or active animation, retaining the familiar intimacy of home.

About the
Professional
We are Sandbox Studio, a co-creative Architecture studio based in Sydney & Canberra.
So what's a co-creative architecture studio – another buzzword?
Not really, ‘cause we take you - the client - seriously... we respect your design aesthetic, your tastes, your desires! We invite you to co-design with us. Don't worry, we do all the hard work, but we sit with you over a coffee and get your imagination going. We engage you in conversations and exercises (our trade secret) which help reveal to you and us what you really want. We know it's our job to come up with ideas and concepts and do all the architectural work, but we think it's also our job to discover what's in the back of your mind and empower your creativity. The result of such a collaborative process is something really special!
Sandbox Studio is an A+ member of the Australian Institute of Architects.
