jbcs - a cosmetic touch for the suburban 01

A freshly completed residence located in a recently developed suburb of inbound Melbourne. This particular dwelling found itself in desperate need of a cosmetic makeover in order to give it an individual character among the monotonous street-scape of lookalike structures.

jbcs - a cosmetic touch for a suburban 05   jbcs - a cosmetic touch for a suburban 06The customer, having just spent a bulk of his capital on the house, was interested in keeping the costs low and already had a predetermined budget in mind. With this guideline set and an understanding of the customer’s  preferences, jbcs Design Team set to work.

Design guidelines were quite straight forward:

  • the dwelling to acquire ‘a point of interest’
  • the setback between the two closely spaced neighbouring structures to gain a boundary to block street-access
  • erect a deck for the entry-way with an adjoining deck/path leading to the front of the lot
  • install a mailbox
  • accompanied by a ‘minimalistic’ landscape design

To keep the costs down the initial design ideas were presented in the form of a rough sketch with only the later developed into 3D CAD imagery (seen below) with accompanying plans and elevations.
