PROJECTS

The artisanal sensibility of an owner-builder, a steeply sloping site and a desire for a tactile material palette set the direction for this refreshing addition to a humble Brisbane worker’s cottage.

An addition to an 1860s cottage, Highgate Park House allows passers-by a glimpse into the history of its Brisbane suburb while affording those who live there a home that is distinctly their own.

A Brisbane house by Anna O’Gorman Architect balances economy with impact, space with sustainability, function with aesthetics.

Lineburg Wang’s eloquent reimagining of this sprawling Queenslander has opened up space for visiting family and friends while improving connectivity and function for the retired homeowners.

Preserving the qualities of one of the few remaining Queenslanders in a South Brisbane neighbourhood, this addition comprises screened outdoor rooms that mitigate the increasingly built-up surrounds.

Making a case for “right-sized” housing, three secondary dwelling designs illustrate how granny flats are being reinterpreted as site-responsive and sustainable spaces that alleviate contemporary demands on our suburbs.

Responding to its heritage context and inner-Brisbane neighbourhood, this addition to a historic weatherboard cottage captures vistas from new living spaces arranged around a landscaped courtyard.

Composed as a series of concrete and masonry platforms, this rigorously executed home by Owen Architecture with Lineburg Wang maintains the pleasure of low -density living through a considered exploration of architecture and terrain.
