Andrew Burges Architects has designed a new two-story residence named Brick House. Located in Bondi, Sydney, Australia, the 310-sqm (3,337-sqft) family home consists of five bedrooms, a study, and associated living rooms.
The design continues our investigation of how to create privacy from neighbouring dwellings while maintaining connections to landscape and the sky. For this, Brick House utilised large glazed windows above the brick walls detailed to have no visible evidence of window framing, creating the illusion that all public spaces of the interior are open to the external elements beyond. The floor introduces a subtle topography into the flat site with level changes at the living and dining area to create thresholds within the open plan arrangement.
