CplusC Architects and Builders have completed a house in Sydney, Australia. Called Queens Park Residence, the experience of this home is an uplifting calm, achieved with the material of warmth and expression of timber.


This contemporary single-story Queens Park Residence has stemmed from an appreciation of timber from concept through to execution. A strong connection to an enclosed courtyard is established through the use of large windows and doors made of recycled Jarrah. Forming the threshold to the outdoors is a meticulously detailed pergola structure built of Jarrah and Western Red Cedar battens that filters the light to a fine filigree. Throughout the design the butterfly roof opens to reveal a delicate eave detail, crafted in Western Red Cedar battens that dissipate to a delicate edge against the sky. Beneath this timber canopy sits the Blue Gum deck and pool coping of Burmese Teak.
