Architecture Design of East Room House

Description About The Project

East Room House designed by Loucas Zahos Architects is a bespoke architectural home carefully crafted to make one stop and marvel in the street. Indeed, complexity is integral to the structure and design for this home, create a one of a kind look and feel from facade through to the rear. Elegant in the way it ties together extensive steel, glass and natural timber accents. This final forever home creates an oasis of peace for those that traverse within.

The architecture of the traditional Queensland house was driven by a need to address specific subtropical climatic conditions. But also a necessity to adopt practical construction techniques that were responsive to the Brisbane terrain. The site of the home characterized by a gradually sloping terrain that falls away from the street. Also, this monolithic platform constructed from exposed concrete provides the base that bears the lightweight delicate interpretation of the Queensland home above.

Moreover, the house organized along a North to South circulation spine. The street frontage bears a Northern orientation. The Southern orientation reveals spectacular expansive views of the city from the main living spaces and kitchen. Besides, spaces West of the circulation spine allocated to stairs and pragmatic utility areas, shielding the Eastern living spaces from the Western aspect. Garage, guest accommodation, and additional living spaces tucked away within the lower basement level of the house below and within the platform.

Especially, sustainability considerations include the provision of 15 kw of solar panels on the roof. With the future capacity for battery storage to be added in a dedicated storeroom near the garage. Glazing is low E performance and is heavily screened on the Western facade.
