New Home Camp Hill

Located in Camp Hill, Brisbane, this new build was on a block that would afford views of the Brisbane city skyline. This informed the design decision to provide a rooftop deck and create the ‘Tower House’. As a 4 bedroom house, it is intended to accommodate a young family and features a variety of living and entertaining spaces on various levels.  

The living, kitchen and entertaining spaces occupy the ground floor while the sleeping spaces located on the mid-floor allow for privacy as well as physical separation from the ‘hub’ of the house. A second living space on the mid-level provides direct access to the rooftop terrace as well as a visual connection over the pool terrace.

The building form is broken up with deeply recessed balcony spaces, large window hoods and wide overhangs which also assist with shading and weather protection. High ceilings and double-height spaces were incorporated to achieve good cross ventilation and natural daylight in all spaces.

Raw materials including polished concrete and Spotted Gum hardwood flooring were selected internally for their durability and timeless appeal, along with custom joinery and stone benchtops throughout. Oversized glass doors, windows and louvres were used extensively throughout the home which allowed for an abundance of natural light and airflow as well as a connection to the natural surroundings.
