Dark Horse — Architecture Architecture Tess + JJ’s House — po-co Architecture
Like a good piece of art, it is polarizing.
Dark Horse House is a layered and
complex project that embodies and
manifests a lot of the architect’s thinking
and theories.

At first glance, it is hard to understand


and appreciate the sequence of
spaces, they unfold according to
the condition of available natural
light, changing the perception of
the otherwise typically dark worker’s
cottage interior. The spaces expand
and contract, and from cool to warm
depending on the program of the
space. Details are deftly handled
with precision and commitment, their
composition and progression though
are not subtle, they are inventive,
playful and delightful.

With the skill of the architect, the 4.5m


wide worker’s cottage typology has
been changed and exploited, extending
the life of this typology, allowing general
public a new understanding of compact
inner city living, and livability in terms
of light and ventilation, the familiar and
the unfamiliar.

Dark Horse House is manipulative,


showing the architect’s confidence,
rigour and maturity in the realization
of their many many concepts.

Tess + JJ’s House— po-co Architecture

— Judges Comments

At first glance, this house sits


quietly in an established streetscape.
However, closer examination reveals
that the most remarkable features
of the building are situated at the
centre of the plan where a delightful,
light-filled double height volume
has been created.

This unexpected space is embellished


by an adeptly handled manipulation
of the floor plan that fractures the
linear path of circulation and makes
space for a small courtyard between
and living and dining rooms.

Carefully positioned high level


openings frame expansive views
of the sky and surrounding foliage
to create a strong sense of
generosity on this tight suburban
site. The raking balustrade of an
elegant stair located at the rear
of the kitchen and dining rooms
adds a dynamic graphic quality
to the volume and enriches the
act of moving between the upper
and lower levels of the house by
permitting oblique views across
the rooms below.

Light Corridor House— FIGR Architecture Studio

— Judges Comments

Light Corridor House has excelled


against the odds of a modest
budget and the constraints of
a tight heritage site in Cremorne.
The use of light and the double
height ceiling provides a sense of
openness and delineates between
the original worker’s cottage and
the new extension. The judges
commend FIGR for smart planning
that creates a sense of openness
and connection to the garden
without losing separation of space
– an important factor for a growing
family. Light Corridor House
includes a creative use of standard
materials such as cement sheet
and contrasting timbers, without
compromising the sense of intimacy
and warmth of the original heritage
cottage. The project is an excellent
example of how smart design can
provide a sense of more for less;
Light Corridor House illustrates that
a beautifully detailed and generous
home can be realised on a modest
budget and site.
