Clontarf 04

With a wide frontage overlooking Middle Harbour all indoor and outdoor living spaces are designed to capture the views, sunlight and breezes from the mid-level of this three-storey home. A garage and self-contained suite are on the ground level with a swimming pool and sunken outdoor lounge contained within a concrete terrace above. The upper level contains a lineal arrangement of four bedrooms with a glazed stairwell providing filtered light to the circulation zone.

Clontarf 02

An existing single level studio space was replaced with a small self-contained dwelling comprising a ground floor living space, kitchenette and bathroom with a bedroom on a mezzanine level. The form was generated from the complexities of the available space between large existing trees, privacy and set-back requirements. A material palette was generated from a desire to reference the existing house while timber, steel and brickwork are used in a compositional form to introduce a previously lacking street presence. A plywood lined interior gives a sense of calm and cohesion to the multi-faceted form.
