An in-progress renovation of a traditional Paddington Queenslander, modernising the home for contemporary family living while protecting its character street frontage.
The owners want a brighter, better-connected home that suits modern family life, without losing the period character that makes their Paddington Queenslander special.
Paddington's pre-1946 streets commonly sit within Brisbane's Traditional Building Character Overlay, where the original street-facing form is protected and demolition is tightly controlled — so changes are focused at the rear and underside rather than the facade.
Our design retains and repairs the character frontage while reworking the rear and lower level for open-plan living, improved natural light and a stronger connection to the outdoors — a sympathetic Queenslander renovation and build-under approach.
Currently in design, progressing towards planning and building approval.
