House ‘Knells’ is a two-story heritage house designed by Horace Driver. Our approach focuses on restoring the house to its original condition while integrating new contemporary elements. Previous (non-original) additions to the home were removed and reworked to suit contemporary living.
In line with heritage standards, new work is identifiable, complementary, and secondary to the heritage structure. New elements, including a garage, entertaining area, pool, and terrace, are designed to be part of the garden. The contemporary use of salvaged materials, like Brisbane tuff stone and brick aggregate, reflect the craftsmanship of the original architecture.
‘Knells’ blends heritage with modern living as an enduring heirloom.
