The project
Alexandra Buchanan Architecture designed Goodtown, a 610 m2 single-level courtyard home on a 1,900 m2 corner block in Rochedale, 17 km south-east of Brisbane, completed in 2019.
Surrounded by large neighbouring houses, the plan turns inwards around a courtyard between the bedrooms and living spaces, giving relief through framed green views. Dark and timber cladding, deep eaves and a covered terrace beside the pool give the house a calm, textured character.
