Black Ribbon House by Studio 15b

Black Ribbon House is a project designed by Studio 15b. This one hundred year old Queenslander home was last seriously renovated in the 1970’s and was in much need of expansion for this growing family. The clients had lived in the home for many years, so knew the house and site well. They loved living in the street and saw the value in a complete renovation that would service their needs for the long term. Raising the existing home allowed for expansion while minimising the footprint on this small lot site. Photography by Angus Martin.

Apartment by Sabrina Salles

Retrofit expands balcony to receive more guests Project is signed by architect Sabrina Salles. The owners of this apartment have three teenage children and love to receive friends. The living room and the balcony asked for a retrofit to meet the current needs of the family, so fabrics, pictures, lighting were changed and the layout of the balcony was changed – the space received new chairs and planned joinery. A vertical garden brings more freshness and greenery to the apartment. The project was started by the Spaço Interior office and completed by the architect Sabrina Salles. Photography by Kadu Lopes.

Apartment by CADDA Arquitetura

For their first apartment, the young couple had a few requests: a green kitchen, an easy-to-clean home, space to receive friends, and a glass cabinet. All were attended by the architect Carolina Haddad, from CADDA Arquitetura, who also gave a personal touch: the glass that belonged to the client’s grandmother was modernized and now occupies a prominent place in the living room. To create the color palette from green, professionals and clients searched on Pinterest and decided to complement the decor with burnt cement and wood. In the bathroom, another boldness: blue walls! To accommodate more guests, the balcony island has casters and can be moved if necessary. Photography by Julia Ribeiro.
