Case Study Coorparoo Crest

A lesson in the creation of an elegant, trendy and luxurious home without being wasteful through a thoughtful and considered approach.

Project Introduction

Situated in the in-demand suburb of Coorparoo, Queensland, this residential project showcases a harmonious blend of contemporary design and functional living, designed by Luxury Home Brisbane Architects, Quorum Studios. The house captures the essence of elegance while prioritising practicality, making it a stunning example of contemporary architecture.

Challenges and Architectural Design

The design of this home presented unique challenges due to its narrow 15-meter width and gradual slope. To address these challenges as opportunities, Quorum Studios advised the clients to thoroughly review their accommodation list and exclude unnecessary indulgences. This thoughtful approach prevented a massive building mass from dominating the site, allowing for a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing design which benefits from the outdoor spaces created through careful consideration of building placement.

Aesthetic Appeal

The exterior of the home boasts a striking design, characterised by clean lines, a modern roofline, and natural earthy tones. The integration of greenery along the facades enhances the visual appeal while encouraging a very tropical feel. A blend of stone and timber elements results in a warm, inviting atmosphere that harmonizes with its surroundings.
