Casa Jardim is a reimagined Queenslander located in Auchenflower, just 15 minutes from the CBD. The home combines the architect’s South American exuberance for life with an easy Queensland aesthetic. The front of the home features a patio fringed by vines cascading from a roof garden above, connecting with the open living, kitchen, and dining areas. With cross-breezes and plenty of light, the elegant flow of the home naturally leads to the pool and entertaining area, a private inner-city escape tucked away in the generous backyard. Thoughtful design around dual-purpose social spaces creates a setting for each time of the day while also meeting a responsibility to design with efficiency. Materials and finishes are faithful to the timeless Queenslander style.
