Weatherboard Queenslanders are a ubiquitous – and much loved – part of Brisbane’s urban landscape. Now that these buildings are a century or so old, however, many are beginning to show their age in looks, layout or liveability. This Queenslander, located in a sought-after city-fringe suburb, has been beautifully restored for current and future generations to enjoy, but there’s an additional surprise beyond the threshold: a striking concrete, glass and steel addition that delivers year-round comfort and joy.
Reworked by Shaun Lockyer Architects for a Brisbane couple, the existing three-bedroom cottage was comfortable enough but there was little connection to the rear garden, which was overlooked by neighbours. “Privacy was a major concern, but we didn’t want to resolve it at the expense of natural light,” says Shaun.
