Indoor/Outdoor Residential Design

When we’re designing and developing a space, we spend a lot of time speaking with you and getting a feel for what you want from your home. Do you want an intimate space or a space that connects with the yard, garden or swimming pool? Or would you prefer that there’s a more clearly defined boundary in place where it’s a clear distinction between the indoor and outdoor elements of the space? We’ll also ask if you plan to cook or cater in your outdoor space and can implement elements that make entertaining a dream for you, with refrigeration, cooking, barbecues and fireplaces just some of the elements we can incorporate.

The desire to connect the indoor space with the outside elements has grown in the past ten years, to the point now where an indoor/outdoor room design is an integral part of most new homes or renovations. We involve you in the design process as much or as little as you like. Whether you are looking to renovate your existing home and want to bring more of the outdoors in, or you are considering a new build and want to get advice from architects who are experienced in this kind of design; know that we can help you.

The advantage of true indoor/outdoor room design is the ability to close it off completely during bad weather, while still being able to use the space. Think about those incredibly hot days or the occasional cold Brisbane day, or perhaps a seasonal thunderstorm. The ability to shut unwanted weather out gives true indoor/outdoor rooms a huge advantage. When the weather is good, you can use your indoor/outdoor room to its full advantage; opening up shutters and silding open your doors. When it comes to home architecture, we can work with you to ensure that your indoor/outdoor room design truly opens up.

An indoor/outdoor room design that blurs the lines between nature and the security of indoors is a true triumph in design.
