St Joseph’s Nudgee College in Queensland, Australia by m3architectureWednesday, December 21st, 2016Article source: m3architecture The Bathersby Boarding Village is akin to a castle in the centre of a city (the school). It is a place where every boy can feel like “the King of the Castle”. Fort-like boarding houses have a long tradition in English schools. They offer appropriate frameworks for safety, security and community building.  Image Courtesy © Christopher Frederick Jones
The Creek House in Queensland, Australia by Shaun Lockyer ArchitectsFriday, December 9th, 2016Article source: Shaun Lockyer Architects The Creek House draws its inspiration from the local vernacular of brick and tin houses on a large leafy block in the Kenmore Hills. The design involved a significant re-invigoration and extension to what was a very simple but promising house. The new work opens the primary living spaces out to the north offering views and engagement with the natural creek environs which offers an enviable sanctuary from the city nearby. A rich but simple palette of stone and timber engages with the natural surroundings, whilst the sheer white walls offer a minimal and clean counterpoint to the immediate context. The outcome is a reflection of a wonderful collaboration between trusting clients that have known us for a long time, and their son who expertly executed the build.  Image Courtesy © SB Photo
Barton Street in Queensland, Australia by Shaun Lockyer ArchitectsThursday, December 8th, 2016Article source: Shaun Lockyer Architects The Barton Street project involved the conversion of a turn-of-the-century character home in Bardon into a twenty-first century contemporary family home. The design of the house focused on maximising the sense of volume, space and connection to the environment in a functional but also poetic way.

Sunshine Beach House in Queensland, Australia by Shaun Lockyer ArchitectsFriday, December 2nd, 2016Article source: Shaun Lockyer Architects The Sunshine Beach House explores the coastal aesthetic through the use of greying timbers and natural materials in a bold, but equally eclectic, architectural expression. The house is planned around a sequence of courtyards (north and south) that offer a very comfortable year-round lifestyle. Built by Wade Jenner (who along with his wife Claire is also the owner), this project afforded us a wonderful opportunity to develop and craft ideas we’ve had for a long time with someone who trusted us enough to make them real.

Ladrillo in Queensland, Australia by Shaun Lockyer ArchitectsWednesday, November 30th, 2016Article source: Shaun Lockyer Architects Ladrillo (Spanish for ‘brick’) takes its cues from the Spanish Mission architectural style of the original Red Hill cottage. Utilising textured brick, recycled breezeblocks and original decorative plaster, this is architecture focused on textures – a fresh white palette not only unifies these textures, but also unites new and old. Punctuated by a central courtyard distinctly separating these spaces, the design maintains visual connections through the light, airy open architecture, which ultimately creates a beautiful backdrop for family life.

The Corner House in Queensland, Australia by Shaun Lockyer ArchitectsTuesday, November 29th, 2016Article source: Shaun Lockyer Architects The Corner House is a contemporary design responding to a character vernacular in a quiet suburban street in inner-city Brisbane. The house is designed around three courtyards, offering a plan that transparently connects the indoor and outdoor living spaces. A simple but poetic palette of light, natural materials is the backdrop to a rich tapestry of shadows created by the screened elements that offer a reinterpretation of the traditional verandah.

1770 in Queensland, Australia by Shaun Lockyer ArchitectsFriday, November 25th, 2016Article source: Shaun Lockyer Architects 1770 is a bold, rustic beach house on a truly unique site on the edge of the Coral Sea. The east-facing house is conceived around a northerly courtyard (which sits in the lee of the wind) with transparent walls allowing panoramic views from all parts of the house. A rustic, raw material palette of stone, silvering timber and textured plaster speaks of the natural weathering that this place is all about.  Image Courtesy © SB Photo
