Port Adelaide House

Designed for a relatively small and narrow site in Port Adelaide, the concept for this three storey residence is set in the former industrial docks area.  The restricted footprint has meant the outdoor living spaces and gardens have been located within the roof and balcony areas. Conceived as a series of split floor-plates spanning between concrete walls, the house maximises the site/floor area. The connecting staircase is used as a multi-functional element, allowing direct northern sunlight into the space, connecting the three tiers visually, and providing integrated casual living, and work spaces. It also acts as a ‘chimney’ that facilitates natural cross-ventilation.

Views extend across the entire second level which holds the living, kitchen and dining areas, out to the tree-lined street beyond. ‘Pop-out’ windows provide access to northern light as well as providing extra floor area and day beds and seats from the pre-cast concrete walls.
