Need better space for your Queenslander?

As with many of our clients, you may also feel the size of your home is too small to accommodate your lifestyle. There are, however, a multitude of solutions to this problem, for example:

• extending or raising the home,
• adding a contemporary extension,
• or, blending the old with the new.

Our architects are highly experienced with Queenslander expansion projects and will help guide you through this process with intuition, sophistication, and an eye for conserving the traditional elements of the home.

What’s more, we understand all the regulations regarding character homes and have an intricate knowledge of their building materials and space/design. In other words, you will reap all the benefits of our experience.

It takes an intuitive eye and expertise to restore the former glory of a magnificent Queenslander property while simultaneously embracing amenities of our modern lifestyle.

Lucky for you, our architects know exactly how to strike the perfect balance between modern and traditional living elements in our designs. That is to say, we will tastefully complement all the visible features of your Queenslander with today’s must-have inclusions. These include open-plan living areas, well-connected kitchens, and a blurring of the divide between indoor and outdoor living.

Unfortunately, renovations to Queenslanders over the years have typically resulted in a loss of eco-friendly features, closed-in spaces, and impractical functionality. Deep, wide verandahs are often closed in to create strange additional bedrooms with two separate entryways. Amenities within the home are also often disjointed. In reality, these ‘quick-fixes’ are poorly planned and only create dysfunctional living spaces in the home.

With the aid of an intuitive architect, on the other hand, you can significantly redefine and transform the space available within your old home.
