Mihaly SlocombeHood House is a playful protector that respects the heritage character of Carlton North whilst celebrating purposeful change. It is a luxurious yet compact and hyper-functional home defined by an exploration of contrast: it is ornamental and restrained, subdued and lively, stately and casual, compartmental and open.
For us, it is also a project with an unusual history. This dual-natured renovation evolved through the ownership of two separate clients. Originally intended to accommodate the needs of a young family of four, we shifted gears at the eleventh hour and adapted a thoroughly resolved design solution to the needs of only two. From a young, nuclear family to a blended adult one, our design solution was put to a test of flexibility.
The result is a subtle renovation almost invisible from the street yet dramatic in its expressive qualities. An oblique view from the northwest reveals the playful zigzag of the new roof, the rippling metal hood. This is a form-making exercise that connects old to new as well as establishing spatial drama in what might otherwise have been utilitarian rooms upstairs. A simple palette of Australian hardwood timbers and white surfaces are complimented by tactile splashes of brass and rich moments of colour that reveal themselves from behind closed doors.
Our internal joke is that Hood House is like Lazarus, risen from the ashes. We’re grateful that almost six years of hard work have culminated in this beautiful, protective and playful house, and so pleased that Glenda and Alistair get to call it home.
CiHUB IndochineThe project is a penthouse of the most beautiful class in the Ciputra urban complex - where Vietnamese elites and tycoons live. This apartment has a private elevator that leads directly from the basement to the house without having to share it with any other owners. Therefore, privacy and privilege are absolutely valued.

domECOIspirata alla tipologia a corte del baglio siciliano, la residenza è immersa in un ampio oliveto e si sviluppa su pianta quadrata da 30 x 30 m, con un corpo centrale e due ali simmetriche che racchiudono una corte interna.
L’accesso principale alla casa è raggiungibile da un lungo sentiero che attraversa l’oliveto e porta all’ ampio cancello scorrevole, centrale rispetto al prospetto principale e che permette di accedere sia a piedi che in auto.
Le due ali simmetriche contengono rispettivamente la zona notte e una zona garage per ospitare auto d’epoca da collezione, mentre il corpo centrale è costituito da un ampio open space per cucina e zona living, che nella zona a destra rispetto all’ingresso è collegata ad un’ala contenente palestra e zona musica.
Un’ala simmetrica a questa contiene la camera da letto padronale con zona benessere, bagno turco, bagno e cabina armadio. I due corpi sono separati da un’ampia veranda collegata visivamente e funzionalmente agli spazi della zona giorno, accessibile anche dall’ingresso secondario della proprietà. In asse con questo ambiente è presente uno spazio piscina, immerso nel verde del giardino.
La posizione delle ampie vetrate permette una continuità visiva tra tutti gli ambienti della casa, sia interni che esterni, mentre l’uitlizzo di ampie pannellature in brise soleil permette di gestire sia il grado di privacy desiderata che l’irraggiamento solare in ingresso.
La distribuzione interna è finalizzata a massimizzare ulteriormente la percezione degli spazi, con lunghi percorsi continui che definiscono gli spazi funzionali e accompagnano lo sguardo verso le aperture sul giardino o sulla corte interna.
In contrasto con la semplicità dell’intonaco bianco e delle forme essenziali della facciata, è stata scelta una palette colori naturale, ma intensa, con texture ricche come la pietra d’iseo a pavimento e le venature del noce per la falegnameria.
Solo la zona garage, separata da un ampio cristallo dalla zona giorno, presenta una texture di cemento nudo a vista, per creare un piacevole contrasto con la raffinata superficie delle automobili.
Inspired by sicilian ‘baglio’, the house is surrounded by a wide olive tree grove and its floorplan is based on 30 x 30 sqm square, the building is shaped like a C figure, with two symmetrical wings embracing a regular inner courtyard.
The white simple rectangular main façade is divided by a wide portal that gives access to the house both by
car and by foot.
The two symmetrical wings above described are designed to contain a garage for collectible luxury vintage cars on the right and the bedrooms on the left.
The main central body will contain a wide open space while a protruding small wing on the right will host a cosy gym and music area.
The same wing, repeated symmetrically on the right side will host the main bedroom with spa, sauna and changing room. In between the two protruding objects, a wide veranda, accessible also via a secondary entrance, aligns the inner open space with the pool area.
The wide windows allow visual connection between all the various spaces, including outdoor ones.
The simple color palette and the austerity of the outdoor finishes led to the choosing of richer textures for the indoors such as ‘pietra d’iseo’ and richly veined walnut paneling. The garage area is the only one characterized by a rough naked concrete finish on the walls, in contrast with the shiny polish of the cars’ bodies.
25:8 Research + Design2 years after building their house, a young family needed some more space for needs of their growing children. The decision was made to renovate their unfinished basement to create a new space for both children and adults.
PLAYPOD
The most compelling feature upon entering the basement is the Playpod. The 100 sq.ft structure is both playful and practical. It functions as a hideaway for the family’s young children who use their imagination to transform the space into everything from an ice cream truck to a space ship. Storage is provided for toys and books, brining order to the chaos of everyday playing. The interior is lined with plywood to provide a warm but robust finish. In contrast, the exterior is clad with reclaimed pine floor boards left over from the original house. The black stained pine helps the Playpod stand out while simultaneously enabling the character of the aged wood to be revealed. The orange apertures create ‘moments’ for the children to peer out to the world while also enabling parents to keep an eye on the fun. The Playpod’s unique form and compact size is scaled for small children but is designed to stimulate big imagination. And putting the FUN in FUNctional.
PLANNING
The layout of the basement is organized to separate private and public areas from each other. The office/guest room is tucked away from the media room to offer a tranquil environment for visitors. The new four piece bathroom serves the entire basement but can be annexed off by a set of pocket doors to provide a private ensuite for guests.
The media room is open and bright making it inviting for the family to enjoy time together. Sitting adjacent to the Playpod, the media room provides a sophisticated place to entertain guests while the children can enjoy their own space close by. The laundry room and small home gym are situated in behind the stairs. They work symbiotically allowing the homeowners to put in a quick workout while waiting for the clothes to dry. After the workout gym towels can quickly be exchanged for fluffy new ones thanks to the ample storage solutions customized for the homeowners.
Astratto DesignEmbarking on the design journey of Wabi Sabi Refuge, I immersed myself in the profound quest for tranquility and harmony. This project became a testament to the pursuit of a tranquil haven that stirs a deep sense of calm within. Guided by the essence of wabi-sabi, my intention was to curate Wabi Sabi Refuge as a sacred space that nurtures an ethereal atmosphere, summoning a sincere connection with the surrounding world. Deliberate choices of muted hues and minimalist elements foster an environment of uncluttered serenity, encouraging introspection and contemplation. Embracing the innate imperfections and distinctive qualities of the carefully selected materials and objects added an exquisite touch of organic allure, instilling an authentic reverence for the beauty inherent in nature's creations. Wabi Sabi Refuge serves as a sanctuary, an evocative invitation for visitors to embrace the sublime simplicity, find solace in the imperfect, and uncover the profound and tranquil beauty that wabi-sabi unveils.
