HANGING HOUSE Brisbane Inner City

We were approached by this couple after they received negative feedback about their site from a number of other architects. The tight, steep terrain contained concrete garages, retaining walls and a pool from a partially constructed dwelling. A critical component of the brief was the retention and integration of these elements within the new building. We saw nothing but potential in the site and the result speaks for itself. The house is a collection of open, light infused spaces that capture the stunning outlook and climate all year round.
