Tarragindi
Kitchen, Living, Dining, Garage and feature pool extension to a prominent three-storey Queenslander in leafy Tarragindi.
This project has been an interesting one for our office. We were originally approached to help bring some clarity to this large home that had been renovated in an ad-hoc way over time. The decision was made to create an Alfresco Deck with outdoor kitchen, which linked to the generous Grand Living room and would have provided a very outdoor-based lifestyle.
After much consideration, the client asked us to re-design the project as a new Kitchen and Dining Extension instead. The undercroft of this space becomes a secondary Garage and Gym. Our scope also included a new Laundry, plus an elevated swimming pool, and terracing and landscaping works around the home to create functional, attractive gathering spaces.
While the process has been long and somewhat challenging on a town planning level, we believe that it has been a worthwhile exercise. The proposed changes will not only bring a generous, sunroom-like space for family living and entertaining, but also provide a significant up-lift in value by reorienting key spaces towards available city views.
We are a vibrant, creative and passionate architectural practice based in Brisbane, Australia.
First established in 2016, we see ourselves as the next link, inspired by - and walking in the footsteps of - generous, creative and selfless architects who have practiced before us.
Architects who may not necessarily be esteemed or celebrated, who may or may not be exhibited or featured in coffee table books,
but in pursuing great design they have quietly, unassumingly touched countless lives in their craft and service.
We are intentional and counter-cultural in our work - in how we serve our clients, in how we relate as a team, how we advocate for those in need, and how we gauge our success.
We are not satisfied with the status quo. We don’t need our name up in lights.
Our buildings are a physical outcome of our passion - to see people live well, to come home to an environment of peace and rest,
and thus empowered to demonstrate generous hospitality.
