This Award Winning 411m2 architecturally designed house is built on an elevated platform perfectly positioned to enjoy the city lights and northerly breezes from the rear deck. An upper level ceiling height of 3m combined with a cool colour palate and clever tiling provides a canvas of grandeur and space. Modern influences have dramatically changed the authentic home design of the conventional Queensland home however the designers have made great use of the natural light and kept the high ceilings providing a very light and airy home design incorporating large windows and doors. Unlike old Queenslander designs this modern house has incorporated a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. Staying true to the roots of original Queensland houses which feature wooden flooring, the internal flooring of this house is made from hardwood Hermitage Oak. It’s a strong and resilient wood that looks great and will stand the test of time. This home also features some added modern extras you probably won't see in traditional Queensland homes, such as floor to ceiling tiles, separate butlers’ pantries and stone benches. So, although aesthetically different from traditional designs, this modern Queensland home has kept all the advantages of the older design but with a unique and stylish new twist.

The brief for the Toowoomba Residence was to combine practical design with high-end, modern finishes to create a ‘forever family home’ that would also feel like a sanctuary away from the office. Drawing inspiration from Spicers Peak Lodge, natural materials were employed to create a textured and moody palette that complemented the sprawling green lawns and landscaped gardens outside.

Design ideas for a traditional deck in Brisbane.

The kitchen featuring Smartstone island benchtop and splashback is proving a joy to live with its winning combination of luxe marble aesthetic in super-durable quartz. For the bathroom, Leeza chose Smartstone Amara, a soft, beautiful surface that features a subtle, random grey vein on a white background.

This classic Queenslander home in Red Hill, was a major renovation and therefore an opportunity to meet the family’s needs. With three active children, this family required a space that was as functional as it was beautiful, not forgetting the importance of it feeling inviting. The resulting home references the classic Queenslander in combination with a refined mix of modern Hampton elements.

The photo shows the front facade of the renovated building. The building itself was raised\relocated on the block and re-stumped to full legal height allowed for the underside to be used for a garage and storage space. The wrap-around balustrading was re-done with dowel timber-hardwood and stained.
