Unique Homes Under Construction
“These are not houses to throw stones in.
Two homes which were dubbed as the Minka Twins. They are currently under construction at Bardon. And are made almost entirely of glass and wooden battens.
Designed by renowned architect Liam Proberts of Bureau Proberts. The houses are inspired by Japanese style and can be completely opened on all sides.
Mr Proberts said the designs were created to suit living in Brisbane’s subtropical climate. And the new home needs of a modern family.
“They are influenced by the blurring of indoor and outdoor spaces found in traditional Japanese farm dwellings known as Minka,” he said.
The Minka Twins’ lower level is constructed largely of glass walls.
That can be completely opened up via an engineered track system. To create the most seamless sense of indoor-outdoor living you can imagine.
Feature batten screening on all sides. High ceilings and pitched roofs pay respect to the Queenslander character of the Bardon streetscape.
The homes have open floor plans that still provide good separation for the occupants.
And many other modern attributes. Including ducted airconditioning, exposed concrete floors and awnings for shade and privacy.
The houses are being constructed by Brisbane-based Story Developments.
Each includes four bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, two study areas, family rooms, indoor gardens and double car garages.
Each house has a stunning family pool and extensive modern landscaping.
The Minka Twins will be the first in a collection of homes we will be releasing,” said Story Developments director Marvin D’souza.
Plans are already underway for our next installment of homes. To be located in Graceville and these will also stand out from the crowd.
The idea behind Story Developments.
Each project we do will be totally unique and create interesting and never-before-seen designs for Brisbane. Located in highly sought-after development site in Brisbane suburb.
The Minka Twins are being marketed by Position Property.
The supply of new premium homes in Bardon is at a significant low,” said Position Property director Richard Lawrence.
“It’s one of Brisbane’s most desirable suburbs and appealing to families in particular. Due to the excellent education facilities. Proximity to Indooroopilly Shopping Centre and location only 6km from the CBD,” he said.
Construction is currently underway with completion expected in August.”
