Architecture Design of Mountford Road House

Description About The Project

Mountford Road House designed Shane Marsh Architects, gives the same feeling of undercroft and coolness to the built form of the home. Located in New Farm, Queensland, the house offers a peaceful dwelling for the owner, just still adapt the daily activity and suitable with traditional Queenslander style.

Families would gather under these houses in the heat of the day. At the same time, kids would run between the undercroft and the garden. Indeed, the undercroft of traditional Queenslanders has a child-like memory for people who grew up in these typical homes.

So the designer injected a new main living space that remains cool in the summer. Also, combined this with large door openings to transition to the secluded gardens of the home. Moreover, the architect opted for a darker ceiling to give that sense of undercroft balanced with strong, heavy, light materials like concrete and marble the lighten the space.

Text by the Architects: A traditional Queenslander Typology restricted the nature of a contemporary family home. We wanted to minimize the impact of any extension on the grandeur of the original house. Besides, the traditional undercroft of a home in the sub-tropical environment of the Southeast has traditionally been the coolest part of the Mountford Road House.
