Terrarium House Seamlessly Weaves Mother Nature Into The House with Lush Greenery for a Serene Oasis

It is not often that man and nature can live harmoniously together but John Ellway Architect has designed a way to do so with Terrarium House located in Brisbane, Australia. It started when the architect wanted a practical way to manage a problematic site where they had a century-old cottage that was slowly crumbling into a backyard jungle so they transformed it into something totally gorgeous.

A Malaysian-Inspired Adaptable House In Brisbane

Architecture

by Sasha Gattermayr

Photo – Sean Fennessy.

When architect John Ellway first arrived at this corner block in inner-city Paddington, it was apparent that the post-war, asbestos-lined cottage that sat on it was no longer habitable. His clients, Boon and Sarah, needed something more flexible, and more in line with the local vernacular.

But there were significant challenges for the new building from the outset, including a strict council code, which dictated roof shape, verandah position and timber detailing on the exterior; plus a tricky location at the centre of a gully in the middle of Paddington’s hilly terrain.

‘The overland flow of water, underground sewer and stormwater all run through the centre of the block and created an exclusion zone for building over,’ explains architect John Ellway.

This meant that to maximise the usable land on the site, the house had to be split into three separate bodies. The main residence comprises two of these modules connected by a rectangular linkway, propped up by stilts. The third module is a granny flat right at the rear of the property and separated from the rest of the north-facing house.

The main residence is U-shaped, with the two main modules jutting out towards the road and the rectangular linkway set back on the site. These square pavilions house the private quarters: on one side the main bedroom and ensuite; on the other, three bedrooms, a laundry and a bathroom. The rectangular bridge sinks 900mm below the two modules and creates a connective passage between the bedroom wings. This sunken section houses the kitchen, dining and lounge room.

Given the house is situated on the corner block, it is configured lengthways with the front door at the belly of the house rather than the front. To maximise light, sliding doors open the full length of the room, making it like an internal verdant that opens towards the street and perfectly frames the majestic auburn poinciana across the road.

The material palette was careful and considered, allowing the clients to ‘embellish’ the interior with their personalities. The communal spaces have tall ceilings and a dark, moody tone while the bedrooms are characterised by light, white plasterboard and blonde timber floors.

‘How do we know what life will be like in another decade?’ asks John Ellway. ‘Designing for adaptability means a house in this case can expand and contract over time as different owners live there and have differing needs.’

More houses should be built with this ethos in mind!

A Crumbling Cottage Gives Way to a Brisbane Home Brimming With Greenery

[ad_1]

A vine-covered terrarium acts as a portal, hiding this home’s entrance from street view.

In the Brisbane suburb of Highgate Hill, a 100-year-old cottage—set on eight-foot-tall stilts to meet the street—was crumbling into the jungle at its backyard. For architect John Ellway, it posed an opportunity. “The change in level meant that the former one-bedroom cottage could grow by inhabiting…

The 10 Most Envy-Inducing Architectural Homes of Last Year

Architecture

by Sally Tabart

The ‘Planchonella House’ by Jesse Bennett and interior designer Anne-Marie Campagnolo. Photo – Sean Fennessy.

Revisiting The Jaw-Dropping ‘Planchonella House’

We first featured the Planchonella House by in Queensland in 2015, but we gave the incredible property a second showing when it came onto the market earlier this year – at it seems that you (like us) couldn’t get enough of this unbelievable home! This ‘tropical bizzaro’ sits amongst a rainforest, with views from all angles. We will never tire of this home!

This House Is A Love Letter To Fitzroy

The ‘King Bill House’ by Austin Maynard Architects is a true homage to Fitzroy. It is inspired by the grungy laneways that jostle alongside red brick Victorian homes, weatherboard cottages, old factories and new developments. This unique home is playful and considered, and a true patchwork of the neighborhood.

Are These The Coolest Apartments In Fitzroy?

The Whitlam Place apartments sparked major interest (and envy) when we first featured them in October. Designed by Freadman White in collaboration with Anon Studio, this boutique apartment development draws inspiration from both local and international architecture, to create a sense of Melbourne post-modernism! This playful and creative building is one we would love to move into…

Jungle Treehouse Meets Urban Brisbane Home

Brisbane’s ‘Terrarium house’ is a physical manifestation of memories for owners John Ellway and Amber Winter. In his design, John used screens to open and divide space, along with semi-translucent glass, invoking memories of past trips to Japan, while the lush planting, rendered block, and semi-outdoor bathroom are inspired by more recent travels to Malaysia and Singapore.

A Triumphant West Brunswick Extension

This clever renovation in Brunswick was about bringing light into a beloved family home, and creating increased connection between the house and garden. The clever team at Taylor Knights architects conjured a sense of expansive space, in a 55 square metre alteration, through creating nooks and new cut-out reveals. We love the white brick walls, the polished concrete floor, the sleek bathroom tiles… we love it all!

A WOW-Factor Extension In Brunswick

We talk about ‘jaw-dropping’ homes a lot on TDF, but for our News Editor Sally Tabart, walking into this stunning home elicited a legitimate ‘WOW’ response! The extension by Rob Kennon Architects is truly superlative worthy, with a meticulous attention to detail. The joinery! The tiles! Those concrete lines… yes please!

A Boldly Re-imagined Victorian Worker’s Cottage

This Port Melbourne gem in the self-designed home of architect Dominic Pandolfini, of Pandolfini Architects. Dominic transformed a tiny, dilapidated Victorian cottage into a stunning family home. Through clever use of the space, the architect has transformed a dark and narrow dwelling into delightful home, flooded with natural light.

A unique renovation in Albert Park by Tandem. Photo – Derek Swalwell.

Extended and Updated in Albert Park

A run-down heritage-listed terrace house in Albert Park presented a challenging brief for Tandem. The Melbourne design studio was enlisted to update and extend the property to fit the needs of a young family, whilst maintaining the heritage streetscape.

Extensive renovations were made to the bedrooms, bathrooms, and laundry, including lots of new storage. Repositioning the kitchen and opening up the ground level reinvigorated the flow of the home, allowing it to transition seamlessly into its new form: a two-storey garden pavilion.

A House Of Hidden Treasures

The St Vincent’s Place Residence by B.E Architecture is a prime example of what is possible when dream client meets ambitious architect. The stunning heritage conversion is also a perfect case study in moving slowly, in order to achieve an outcome of the highest order!

The project developed over a three year period, which allowed for ideas to flourish and a fully resolved outcome to be delivered. Together, the architect worked with the client to resolve the relationship between heritage and modernity, through the mingling of art, architecture and furniture. Every room unfolds a new design delight – a flourish in every corner! (and what about that subterranean POOL!?)

The Ballarat House by Eldridge and Anderson. Photo – Derek Swalwell.

A Surprise In Ballarat’s Suburbs

This home by Eldridge and Anderson shows what can be achieved in a modest suburban plot, when clever design is at play. In a modest setting and with a limited budget, the architects show the potential of thinking creatively for a low maintenance, refined and flexible design. In a location where architect designed houses are not the norm – this home shows the beautiful possibilities of suburban estate living.
