3 la trobe terrace

Commercial space in Paddington

2018

Location: Paddington, Brisbane, Queensland

This project rejuvenated a disused dilapidated typical Paddington Queenslander and converted it into a suite of private offices with a very public face. Utilising the sloping nature of the site from front to back the plan and section extends down the hill allowing multiple ground plane connections and final connection to the back yard. Combining the direct requirement of the function within to form void, opening and detailing each space inherits its own character, influenced by the traditional detailing of the Queenslander. In breaking up function void and light was introduced in different ways to reflect and reinforce a vibrant work space.
