Longfellow Terraces banner

Longfellow Terraces are an example of what the often-discussed “Missing Middle” could look like in Brisbane - a sustainable infill-development for sensitive densification of inner-city suburbs. Inserting additional dwellings into existing infrastructure allows more people to enjoy the qualities of these precincts rather than adding to the urban sprawl

Inspired by the way in which ancient people used to live under trees for protection from the elements, the design genuinely connects the entire living floor to the landscape by providing sheltered and unobstructed spaces that are truly in touch with nature.

The spatial arrangement of the project takes queues of the functionality of “Sydney Terrace Houses”. Three storey dwellings use the sloping land to fully conceal garages and driveway thus avoiding ground floor domination by garage doors. Instead, the houses feature entry sequences similar to traditional ‘Queenslanders’ with the arrival of visitors at landscaped front yards, stairs and verandas.

Heka Hoods we selected due to the sleek modern appeal that compliments the architecture that we create. The awnings are easy to install and come on-site as a pre-finished product that provides effective protection against the elements to any opening. We love that they are local to us and Australian made. Heka are always up for a challenge in creating and adjusting their product to suit any of our design projects. - REFRESH*DESIGN
