Newtown Lighthaus - Newtown NSW
By Sandbox Studio®
As an offering of balance to the original and heritage home, Newtown Lighthaus celebrates a rigour in detail, highlighting a refinement in the newly introduced contemporary insertions, while respecting the existing surrounding context. As an elevation and addition to the existing home, and to continue a sense of relevancy as the owners ready for the coming chapters, the new adjustments and restoration efforts acknowledge connections to a crafted past, while focusing on a shared calm throughout. By focussing on light and a feeling of lightness within the home, the internal volumes become naturally illuminated and made to feel perceptively more generous than they otherwise are. The result sees optimisation of a quaint and restrictive site, celebrating the coming together of heritage and contemporary living.

We are Sandbox Studio, a co-creative Architecture studio based in Sydney & Canberra.
So what's a co-creative architecture studio – another buzzword?
Not really, ‘cause we take you - the client - seriously... we respect your design aesthetic, your tastes, your desires! We invite you to co-design with us. Don't worry, we do all the hard work, but we sit with you over a coffee and get your imagination going. We engage you in conversations and exercises (our trade secret) which help reveal to you and us what you really want. We know it's our job to come up with ideas and concepts and do all the architectural work, but we think it's also our job to discover what's in the back of your mind and empower your creativity. The result of such a collaborative process is something really special!
Sandbox Studio is an A+ member of the Australian Institute of Architects.
