From the street this 1905 cottage retains connection to its past. The rear extension however has a focus on function, passive climate control and longevity. Surfmist Colourbond has a low solar absorbency, deflecting almost 70% of heat and requires no maintenance for approximately 20 years, leaving more time for family and friends.

We are at the final design stage for a historical 1905 cottage in Woolloongabba. Whilst the cottage is typical of early 1900’s colonial architecture and has some wonderful features, it also has small windows, poor orientation for Brisbane climate and limited interaction with the outdoors. The extension opens the existing house to the rear, and an upper bedroom wing, prioritising opening the space to nature, light and gentle wind whilst maintaining privacy.

Woolloongabba, an indigenous word referring to a place to settle disputes, was also known as ‘One Mile Swamp’ with ‘reeds, waterlilies and wattle’. This history inspired the internal garden as a form to bring peace and harmony to everyday living. Located in the space between old and new, the internal garden will be visible and accessible from the upper floor void, the existing cottage and the new extension.

This hand drawing by our collaborator Penny Parichart illustrates the relationship and priority between the extensions built form and our need to access nature.

We look forward to sharing more
