Dion Seminara Architecture
This Yatala outdoor extension was a perfect way to improve light and airflow into an otherwise unused space. High level louvers were incorporated into the North East aspect of the outdoor area which allowed for cooling breezes and natural lighting to flow throughout the space. Shutters were added on the Western side of the area to block out the harsh sun light and storm weather. The client was after a contemporary feel which complimented the style of the existing home.
She had a taste for warmer tones and was particularly interested in the traditional Brisbane sandstone colours as a theme. To perfect this scheme, dion seminara architecture chose a combination of sandstone tiles, a natural look stone feature wall, blackbutt timber and a subtle colour scheme. The result is an extraordinarily warm and inviting entertainment space.
Cascade Outdoor Design
The steeply sloped back yard allowed us to make a drastic impact by building an 8' tall retaining wall to support the pool and patio, creating a dog-friendly play space in the lower yard. The heated pool features an inset spa for year-round relaxation. An adjacent sunken patio is anchored by a linear fire pit, with an artificial turf floor to visually soften the space. Tiered patios define the rooms underneath the new second story deck, while a shed provides both storage and privacy from the neighbors. Tucked underneath the staircase is a shower, complete with a surfboard to add a fun, beach element to the coastal style space. Lush landscaping and mindfully placed accent lighting finish off the space, to provide a comfortable refuge from everyday life.
