Contemporary duplex development featuring stacked dwellings, private rooftop areas with entertaining spaces, and stunning views over Burleigh Headland, completed in 2020 with a blend of brutalist design softened by natural timber and stone materials.

The development was a re-interpretation of the duplex typology for a narrow site. The dwellings were stacked in a Class 2 configuration with similar floor plates on the lower & upper levels. The mid floor was split with additional bedroom spaces to each dwelling

Private roof top areas accessible from the units were provided with outdoor entertaining areas, BBQ spaces and rooftop pools. The rooftops were utilised so these outdoor spaces could capitalise on views over Burleigh Headland and the surf break and ocean beyond

A heavier more brutalist form was used on the design being softened by natural materials of timber & stone

Larger North aspect decks & outdoor areas were positioned to capitalise on views, breezes & Northern light. Large overhangs for the sub-tropical site

“Habitat Studio Architects went above and beyond designing our full internal renovation. The whole process was smooth and we loved it when the visual renders were sent through so we could envision what our home was going to look like. The visuals help the whole process and make it exciting.”
