Twin Peaks House

Twin Peaks House is a vibrant extension to a grand Edwardian homestead in Kensington. Originally built in 1913 for a wealthy family of butchers, when the surrounding landscape was pasture from horizon to horizon, the homestead endured as its acreage was carved up and subdivided into smaller terrace allotments. Our clients discovered the property decades ago during long walks around their neighbourhood, promising themselves that they would buy it should the opportunity ever arise. Many years later the opportunity did arise, and our clients made the leap. Not long after, they commissioned us to update the home for their family of five. They asked us to replace the pokey rear end of the house, shabbily renovated in the 1980s, with a generous extension that matched the scale of the original home and its voluminous garden. Our design intervention extends the massing of the original gable-roofed house towards the back garden, accommodating kids’ bedrooms, living areas downstairs and main bedroom suite tucked away upstairs gabled volume to the east earns the project its name, duplicating the main roof pitch at a smaller scale and housing dining, kitchen, laundry and informal entry. This arrangement of rooms supports our clients’ busy lifestyles with zones of communal and individual living, places to be together and places to be alone. The living area pivots around the kitchen island, positioned carefully to entice our clients' energetic teenaged boys with the aroma of cooking. A sculpted deck runs the length of the garden elevation, facing swimming pool, borrowed landscape and the sun. A first-floor hideout attached to the main bedroom floats above, vertical screening providing prospect and refuge. Neither quite indoors nor out, these spaces act as threshold between both, protected from the rain and flexibly dimensioned for either entertaining or retreat. Galvanised steel continuously wraps the exterior of the extension, distilling the decorative heritage of the original’s walls, roofs and gables into two cohesive volumes. The masculinity in this form-making is balanced by a light-filled, feminine interior. Its material palette of pale timbers and pastel shades are set against a textured white backdrop, with 2400mm high datum adding a human scale to the raked ceilings. Celebrating the tension between these design moves is a dramatic, top-lit 7m high void that slices through the centre of the house. Another type of threshold, the void bridges the old and the new, the private and the public, the formal and the informal. It acts as a clear spatial marker for each of these transitions and a living relic of the home’s long history.

This Downtown Jackson home is full of contemporary steel. The handrail and stairs are simple yet functional and were installed in sections and mounted to the floor and walls. Steel columns were positioned on the decks outside so the wood screen would act as a privacy barrier for the close downtown residences. A horizontal rail was installed to match the privacy screen that was installed. Each horizontal bar was shop welded in place and installed in one section. The emergency ladder was manufactured out of steel and installed under an external floor grate. Hinges were welded into place creating a trap door egress to allow an easy exit access if required. All in all, this Downtown abode encompasses steel and wood in a contemporary modern variation.

How do you create a family outdoor terrace experience? The solution was to build next to the pool a family retreat where shade and cooling winds would interact with the subtle planting, within easy touch of the furniture areas and where lazy days could be dreamed away.

We built this new Timbertech in 2018 and a few years later, these homeowners got a new Hot Tub under the deck and was looking for privacy. We then built a horizontal decking privacy wall to match the decking. We also wrapped the footing posts and beams to complete their backyard deck project. Wall looks great and really completes the final look of the whole project. With this stay-at-home pandemic – the homeowners have much more time to enjoy the privacy in their new hot tub.

Una piccola terrazza di una moderna palazzina a Centocelle, su cui abbiamo eseguito un’operazione sartoriale, è diventata così un piccolo caldo angolo romantico. Una metamorfosi grazie a pochi sapienti interventi di rinnovamento. Abbiamo installato un decking flottante per esterno, costituito da legno Iroko del Gabon, che con un tocco scalda l’ambiente. La schermatura frangisole/frangivento è stata realizzata attraverso un’installazione ancorata sul parapetto fisso; Il materiale usato è legno in doghe verniciato, e il gelsomino rampicante ci si intreccia custodendo la privacy di questo nuovo angolo di relax. La porzione era solo parzialmente coperta da una tettoia in muratura, che abbiamo prolungato attraverso l’installazione di una tenda a braccio motorizzata, dotata di telecomando. Un pilastro in cemento che prima “ingombrava” lo spazio, adesso è perfettamente inserito tra gli elementi del fondo scenico, la schermatura in legno lo incorpora e lo accompagna con delle canne di bamboo verniciate. La luce “bagna” verticalmente il dogato mediante piccoli corpi illuminanti biemissivi cui fanno eco in basso dei proiettori a picchetto, posizionati all’interno di grandi vasi in resina dentro i quali svettano snelli arbusti. Il piccolo ma confortevole salottino è stato disegnato dall’Architetto e realizzato ad arte presso un Atelier di stoffe e textures. La struttura del tavolino e delle sedute è in ferro zincato verniciato, e le tappezzerie sono studiate appositamente per l’outdoor. Le porzioni marginali della terrazza sono state semplicemente integrate con prato sintetico di buona fattezza e con vasi in resina che introducono al nuovo incantevole angolo di relax.
