Choux is a three-bedroom, three-bathroom inner-city family home nestled among existing residences on a rear laneway corner block. We maximised the 77-square-metre building footprint with a protruding upper level featuring a large curved window angled towards the north. The sculptural façade includes three brickwork patterns contrasted by a tyrolean textured finish, reflecting the client’s love of meticulous craftsmanship. Inside, white polished concrete floors, a perforated metal balustrade and curvaceous forms evoke a sense of openness and serenity.
Our vision was a small compact family home for 4 and 2 dogs. We wanted the house to be a small oasis in Mt Lawley and remind us of living in a small hotel villa.
Moments that stood out during our journey began with the creativity when the team designed a spacious home in a very challenging site. The house is the perfect reflection of our personalities and suits the way we live.
A house with a small footprint, clever design that can accommodate for our family and finished with beautiful materials.
