The project
Steven Clegg Design moved an existing Queenslander cottage on its awkward L-shaped site in Clayfield, Brisbane, reconnecting the house with its rear garden and creating outdoor rooms around every edge. The project was completed in 2023.
A new ground floor holds the main living spaces and a guest suite, while the restored cottage above has the bedrooms and a second lounge. The dark extension is detailed simply so it recedes beside the cottage, and the interiors use traditional Queensland heritage colours in playful, textured materials.
