Introducing Quamby, a project by Bryant Alsop Architects that beautifully transforms a prominent Victorian house in the streetscape. Situated on a triangular lot with garden areas to the front, this project re-imagines outdoor living spaces while addressing privacy and access issues. The existing 2-storey addition from the 1990s required upgrading to better integrate with the ornate Victorian architecture and improve sustainable performance.
Our team worked with Fortem Projects to extend the dwelling to provide accommodation for a family of 5, with private ensuites to each of the 4 bedrooms and generously proportioned living spaces that prioritize garden views. By carefully adding a first floor that respects heritage sightlines and council regulations, we seamlessly integrated a contemporary level that celebrates the Victorian character of the original house. The design merges classical and contemporary elements, creating light-filled living spaces that retain Victorian proportions and detailing with a blend of traditional materials and modern durability.

Our work spans residential, education, and commercial sectors, and is underpinned by a belief that architecture should be uplifting, beautiful and honest. We are committed to achieving carefully considered design solutions and are committed to fully delivering the complete project to our clients.
Buildings grow and evolve with time. It is important that a building engages with the landscape, and that the two are viewed in unison. Similarly, much attention is given to interior spaces and as such, we offer a specialised interior design service with the expertise to offer full interior design services.
Bryant Alsop offers a highly-personalised approach, based on developing strong working relationships with our clients. We believe that a collaborative approach is necessary for successful design results that speak both of the client's desires, our architectural ideas and the project context.
Bryant Alsop works closely with our clients to ensure that their needs and desires are at the core of every project.
