A tranquil home in Brisbane, Three House by John Ellway Architect is an adaptable and responsive home defined by a sense of calm.Taking its name from the home’s ability be split into three separate modules, allowing it to be split into three self-contained dwellings in future, this tranquil home is driven by both the clients’ brief and a response to the site. Set on flood prone land, the house needed to be elevated, which also helps it to be naturally ventilated. Meanwhile, the clients sought a house that would enable their parents, who live overseas, to stay with them for long periods of time, which drove the flexibility of the layout.
