Designed around the concept of creating a second level that was literally invisible from the street, this two storey extension in Bondi Junction has finally been completed by Trico Construction. The finished building is a meticulously detailed and beautifully finished jewellery box that belies its apparently conservative street presence.
Here’s some evidence that good design adds a lot more value than just its aesthetic and environmental contributions. Despite only reaching practical completion last week, the owner of this free stading home in Maroubra has already had substantial offers made on the house by random passers by. As always, we have to thank an enlightened client and builder for carrying through the concept.
This quarter has seen the development of several new residential alterations and additions projects including the McGree Residence in Kensington, the Fish Residence in Clovelley and the Warwicker Residence in Lewisham. We’ve also been working on a rear extension to the Quinlan Residence – our very first project, and the traditional starting point of most architectural practicves (the parents house.) The McGree residence shows a natural evolution in the development of our external spaces from the Piccoli Residence in griffith and starts to show the development of a consistent aesthetic for our residential work.
Another substantial freestanding house project designed by The Quinlan Group is nearing completion in Castlecrag. Nestled at the end of Edinburgh Road with expansive views of Middle Harbour, the site stays true to the modernist ideologies of the original building that occupied the site. The building is scheduled for completion in late June / early July -we’ll be sure to post more photos then
Cameron Smith from Parkzip has recently finished constructing a little jewellery box for us in the Connaught Apartment building at the end of Hyde Park. This is our second apartment in the building and another JV project with our usual partners in crime.
These images were shot yesterday by staff using a standard SLR and it look good enough already – we’re really looking forward to seeing this professionally photographed with one of Darryl’s signature furniture packages.
Another joint venture project between The Quinlan Group and Darryl Gordon Design has been featured in the latest issue of Inside Out magazine. This project is far more contemporary and minimal than our last feature project, but at the same time has a richer materialirty and arguably an even higher standard of finish.
