BQ Architects designed two double-storey dwellings on a 440-square-metre allotment, balancing the unique needs of diverse occupants: the principal architect in one home and a young family in the other. This dual-purpose project harmonises masculinity and femininity, reflecting the distinct energies of its residents. The Male home features raw, minimalist interiors with a monotone palette, while the family’s dwelling offers warmth with soft colour schemes and Hampton-inspired casework. This blend of styles within a contemporary facade exemplifies BQ Architects’ multi-layered design approach.
