Belair House

Client Private
Building Area 400sqm
Due for completion in 2009

The brief was a solar passive design family home to accommodate a couple and two children to be built by the owner's bricklayer father - from recycled bricks. SD Studio worked with the client to establish the siting and massing of the house to get the best orientation for sun and ventilation. Non-traditional in layout, this courtyard home addresses the street with a private courtyard and expresses the tactile warmth of the re-used bricks.

Two type houses

ClientPrime Building Company
Building Area House 1 196sqm
Building Area House 2 225sqm
Due for completion in 2009

The scheme for two speculative type houses is part of a new community development in South Australia’s riverland district. Each house is designed around the concept of a “trombe” wall, a massive wall that runs through the centre of the house, exposed to the sun in winter to store heat and shaded in the summer to normalise the large temperature swings. The houses are 3 bedrooms and have two facade options for each floor plan . SD Studio also provided the landscape plan.
