2a Seacombe Grove / b.e. Architecture
Photographs: Mein PhotoText description provided by the architects. Seacombe Grove is a family home on a corner block, abutting five lanes of traffic with the associated noise. As such the exposed corner site required a protective building to shelter the occupants.

This space is visually and physically accessible from all lower level living rooms through continuous floor to ceiling glass. The whole of the ground floor is within a protected courtyard garden, contained by a continuous high fence, enabling the entire area (excepting pedestrian and car entry points) to be private and usable. Save this picture!© Mein PhotoThe ground floor living areas are separated into two distinct zones – day / summer areas facing north and west are integrated with the pool, garden and covered outdoor eating areas, while the night / winter areas face east and south. Separation between these zones is achieved by the placement of a two level void and stair. This element of vertical movement and effective slice in the plan is not revealed until entry into the dwelling. This element provides separation at the upper level between master bedroom and the children’s bedroom and laundry facilities. Save this picture!ground floor planLarge spotted gum pergolas that project out from under the upper level enhance usable outdoor areas. These pergolas of black charred timber have glazed roofs and operable walls, and also serve to ground the floating bluestone form above. Save this picture!© Mein PhotoWith the ground floor having continuous glazing, the upper level is contrasted with expressive stone walls with deep apertures that protect the occupant from the nearby major road. These apertures and associated upper level courtyards provide internal privacy to the dwelling. Save this picture!© Mein PhotoCore sustainable concepts are integral to the project, starting from the ground up with a fully insulated slab with raised timber flooring. The double glazed ground floor has sufficient openings for cross ventilation while the remainder are fixed to minimize air leakage from the building. In lieu of eaves, the pergolas provide shade to the west facing glass on the ground floor, whilst first floor fenestration is either set back from the façade by a minimum of 1.5m or protected by external timber screens to prevent direct radiant heat entry. Save this picture!planThe selection of materials consciously addressed their ability to span the life of the building – natural and aged materials such as bluestone temper the “newness” of the project, and will temper its age in the future. The bluestone cladding is cut in 4 differing widths and a random stacked pattern is utilized to accentuate the horizontality of the building, while the black charred timber screens and fences contrast the stone in their vertical arrangement. The bluestone is employed as an antidote to the prevalence of acrylic render and its flat plasticity and immediacy. While being a material that is quarried, cut and textured and thus rich, it is also a material that is beautiful in its ubiquitous nature in Melbourne – just look under your feet.Save this picture!© Mein PhotoProject gallerySee allShow lessArchitecture City Guide: ChicagoArticlesAD Round Up: Stadiums Part IVArticles Share Projects Save this picture!© Mein Photo+ 21 Share Architects: B.E Architecture Year Completion year of this architecture project “COPY” ShareFacebookTwitterPinterestWhatsappMailOrhttps://www.archdaily.com/106031/2a-seacombe-grove-b-e-architecture Clipboard 2009 “COPY” CopyAbout this officeB.E ArchitectureOfficeFollowProductConcrete#TagsProjectsBuilt ProjectsSelected ProjectsResidential ArchitectureHousesDabasMelbourneHouses3D ModelingAustraliaPublished on January 26, 2011Cite: “2a Seacombe Grove / b.e.

The site is characterized by the new artificial canal and its circular pool, which creates the ending and the new focus for the architectural composition of the area. The building site is located on the edge of the built environment, from the other side it faces the almost untouched virgin landscape dominated by dark fir forest.Save this picture!© Tiia EttalaThe program consists of modest sized rental housing units enjoying long vistas along the canal and towards the forest. In section the building is terraced in order to create light atmosphere and to enrich the housing typology. The outdoor balconies are playing an important role in the whole. Some of the flats are occupying two balconies looking into different directions and lighting conditions. On the Northern façade the most characterizing feature is the chess-like composition by cantilevered balconies and the entrance areas. Save this picture!© Tiia EttalaThe visual trick in order to obscure the scale has been created by composing four different balconies into one huge unit. Each of these elements has been treated with vibrant colours giving different identity for each of them. Inside the boxes the colours range from strong reds and purples into more diffused greens. The entrance areas with their canopies mimic the balcony elements completing the chess-like composition. Rest of the façade has been treated calmly by white plastering and quite rigid window openings. The inner elevation maximizes the light by using different whites and corrugated aluminium panels.Save this picture!Site PlanProject gallerySee allShow lessCincinnati Live/Make Competition ResultsCompetition ResultsFocal Point Community Campus Proposal / HDR ArchitectureUnbuilt ProjectProject locationAddress:Helsinki, FinlandLocation to be used only as a reference.

The house sits on the hilly part of Caldecott Hill, a private housing estate located along Thomson Road in the central region of Singapore. Set in acres of lush, tropical grounds, this designated Good Class Bungalow housing estate is a world apart from Singapore’s bustling pace yet located just minutes from the heart of the city’s hectic business and commercial centre.

From the outside, one could be easily misled to think that most views as a result would be inward looking. Designed for a three-generation family, one of the requirements was for a 25-meter lap pool that would go with the active lifestyles of the family. The existing terrain that drops a steep 8m from the entrance to the eastern boundary as crafted becomes a backdrop for this family’s lifestyle to happen.Save this picture!© Albert KS LimClearly conceived as volumes surrounding a central courtyard, the house consists of 2 parallel massing that runs from west to east that is unified by the common living and dining spaces on the first storey. At the main entry foyer, the arrival sequence begins at the second storey through the broad entryway that detaches the house from the existing sloping terrain. Stepping into the space, the continuous folding roof gently guides one in. This roof sits on a ribbon glass that wraps around the perimeter of the 2nd storey, allowing natural light to filter in. Clad with timber on the underside of the ceiling, these directional timber strips open up to an extensive view of the lowered landscape overlooking Thomson road. Here, full height operable metal screens with laser cut motifs acts as a sun shading device bringing in not only the North-east and Southwest monsoon winds but also shadow patterns that changes over the course of the day.Save this picture!© Albert KS LimAs one descends to the 1st storey through the cantilever glass bridge extending from the travertine wall, one is greeted with a calm mirror of water courtyard. Within this courtyard, a sculptural oxidized metal stair spiraling out from the water connecting the rooftop garden above the living room for a stunning panoramic view of the city. This water is also brought into the powder room where a green wall and a trough of water echo nature outside. As spaces with a higher circulation such as the kitchen and laundry are placed towards the front of the house, this frees up the plan on the eastern side allowing for wider views. The living space, which has pivoting doors operable on all sides, is a base from which the upper volumes are cantilevered. On this first storey, full height sliding doors connect both the dry kitchen and study across the reflecting water, extending itself into one large space that allows for increase interaction between family members.Save this picture!© Albert KS LimThe color palette of natural materials evokes also a sense of calm. This can be seen from the juxtapositions of the exterior timber cladding of the frontal walls, walls, columns, screens and the rugged wood texture fair face concrete walls. This effect makes the house as a whole less overbearing on the environment, emphasizing the fluidity of space between the indoor and the outdoor. Save this picture!© Albert KS LimUpon walking towards the lap pool, one is drawn to the spaciousness of the open spaces around it. A 3m wide timber deck runs parallel to the pool anchoring the floating volumes. In this outdoor area, shade relief is being offered incidentally from the large cantilevered structures above. A large family entertainment room beneath the living room has the full view of this infinity pool and is connected deliberately for poolside activities.With multiple visual connections to the poolside at both 1st storey and the basement, the initial challenge of the steep drop has been turned into a design element unique to the site. Through this, one can imagine the three generations together enjoying the unity that this house successfully provides.Save this picture!First Floor PlanProject gallerySee allShow lessTED: How an Obese Town Lost a Million Pounds / Mick CornettVideosPhotographer Victor Enrich Reshapes an Existing Hotel, 88 TimesArchitecture News Share ArchDaily ShareFacebookTwitterPinterestWhatsappMailOrhttps://www.archdaily.com/463231/hillside-house-ar43-architects Clipboard Save this picture!© Albert KS Lim+ 16 Share CopyAbout this officeAR43 ArchitectsOfficeFollowProductsWoodStoneConcrete#TagsProjectsBuilt ProjectsSelected ProjectsResidential ArchitectureHousesHousesSingaporePublished on January 02, 2014Cite: “Hillside House / AR43 Architects” 02 Jan 2014.

This project engages with issues of extended family dwelling, spatial flexibility, and adaptive reuse.Save this picture!© Shannon McGrathThe Water Factory involves the refurbishment and residential conversion of a late 19th century industrial warehouse building of individual heritage significance. Located in North Fitzroy the building previously contained businesses such as a jam factory, aerated water factory, advertising agency and engineering consultancy.Save this picture!SectionThis was primarily an interior project: the footprint of the two storey building coincides with the site boundaries and the significant heritage constraints limited options for altering the external envelope of the building.Save this picture!© Shannon McGrathSave this picture!Ground Floor PlanTo address the need for multiple possibilities for extended family living, the design is conceived as a collection of houses contained within the broader envelope of the building. The plan is subdivided in two on the ground floor and internally connected to create two side-by-side dwellings which have separate main street entrances for different members of the family.Save this picture!© Shannon McGrathSave this picture!First Floor PlanTo draw light and ventilation into what is a poorly oriented and deep footprint, an extensive number of operable skylights were introduced on the north and south-facing roof pitches, and a large void connecting the ground and first floor was strategically positioned to also take advantage of this amenity. Bedroom, bathroom and laundry spaces are divided by a series of operable and sliding panels. What are conventionally regarded as cellular and isolated spaces within a house are imbued with a sense that they are provisional areas that can form part of the open plan or be used for more private purposes.Save this picture!© Shannon McGrathThe ceiling geometry which intersects with the original warehouse roof trusses, varies and undulates along the cross-section of the building.
