This stylish house was designed by BASE. BASE designed houses on almost all combinations of small lot configurations from corner lots, flat lots, sloping lots (front to back) and (back to front) and also side falls. It’s located in Brisbane Australia. The small street house slopes both from front to the back and across the site. It offers many opportunities to explore the spatial relationships proven across a mixture of levels and functions. This house was critical to open up in order to take advantage of the aspects of the site. It allows access to areas not usually explored, both visual and physical, such as roof top terraces and low height garden that allow the house to breath.
This house became apparent with such a small footprint. The form of the building allow this footprint and associated functions would express a character of its own. The character of these dwellings is expressed in the form of the building which includes flat roofs, low pitched roofs, parapets, skillions and gables. This project used the materials that may include a range of face brick, weatherboard, fibre cement sheeting, metal cladding and rendered brickwork facades.
