The Lockyer Residence is a contemporary small house extension onto a post war house in Bardon, a heavily treed and hilly fringe suburb in Brisbane by Shaun Lockyer Architects. The design looks to address two primary architectural issues, the first is about context and language, the second is about finding the essence of what is needed from an accommodation/ resource perspective in an effort to create a engaging but practical and economical outcome.
This is contemporary small house design with aim to accommodate the needs of a young family that had outgrown the original cottage. The other core function of the extension was to improve the connection to the landscape, engage with the sky and to provide a more climatically comfortable place to live, using the minimum resources to achieve a qualitative outcome at a very low cost. Interior decor in every room of this house is designed in contemporary tones, minimalist with wooden furniture. Via
