Set in the leafy suburb of Bardon, a central sunlit courtyard forms the vibrant heart of family living, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor environments.

‍

Both a social & functional space, the courtyard optimises natural light, cross-ventilation and native planting to transform this concrete home into a breathing & open environment.

‍

Celebrating subtropical living, the design facilitates a calm retreat for family & natural connections. The sweeping curved concrete planters create a bold street presence & wrap the courtyard space to celebrate outdoor living spaces in the subtropical climate of Queensland.

‍

Internally, the varying ceiling heights define zones for living, dining & entertaining, including a ten-person dining space for extended family gatherings.
