11. Built-in Storage and Seating

Taking cues from the Arts and Crafts movement, old and new are connected by a continuous joinery unit crafted from solid American Oak. Encouraging both exploration and a clear understanding of zones, this unit works to seamlessly integrate the functions of daily life - a Study Area, Mud Room and Drop Off Point, Window Seat, Cocktail Bar, and finally a Dining Banquette.

26. Built in Desk Joinery

There is a strong geometry to the floor plan that encourages multiplicity of function. This dictated by its bold angles and the way in which the two main structures interact, creating a clear understanding of ‘zoning’ that also manages to keep the clutter of family life under control.

Description

Hendra Project consists of the original Post-War structure, a contemporary extension and a walkway that eases the transition between old and new.

There is a strong geometry to the floor plan that encourages multiplicity of function. This dictated by its bold angles and the way in which the two main structures interact, creating a clear understanding of ‘zoning’ that also manages to keep the clutter of family life under control.

The kid’s zone is housed within the original structure, with parents retreat and communal living in the extension. A transparent walkway allows connection to both zones and the streetscape, featuring a joinery unit that encourages exploration on the journey between zones.

A simple finishes palette reflects the architecture. Terracotta references the heritage of the area in a unconventional way that is both nostalgic and uniquely Brisbane.

The various apertures and openings draw glimpses of the surrounding terracotta roof lines into the interiors.

The kitchen island clad in terracotta continues this thread, finding inspiration from the Arts and Crafts movement and its philosophy of modest form and craftsmanship.
