Hampden Rd | Archier

2020 Tasmanian Architecture Awards


2020 Tasmanian Architecture Awards: People's Choice

Hampden Rd | Archier

Heritage Architecture | Residential Architecture – Houses (Alterations & Additions)

Aware of the historic value of the site, the alteration and addition to this 1850s cottage and former milk depot was designed to be unapologetically modern while remaining sympathetic to its surroundings through the ‘house and garden’ typology which references the finer grain of Battery Point. The cottage was sympathetically renovated to showcase the original features while the subtle single level addition is arranged as a cluster of outbuildings. Numerous courtyards allow northern light to penetrate, improving solar gain, energy efficiency and natural ventilation. Spatially the house is designed to host family and friends, while providing a functional space to display a considerable art collection. As a home intended for retirement, a low maintenance garden, all within a single level, allows for aging in place. Subtle and considered, the Hampden Rd house harmonises many different ambitions. This unique space is a physical manifestation of those living in it.

Client perspective:
How does the design benefit the way you live/work/play/operate/educate/other?

“We will be forever grateful for the many architectural features the Archier team introduced to our project that have resulted in a home that is individual and special. We refer to things such as the concept of a courtyard encased by glass, battened ceilings, kitchen cabinetry clad with mild steel, a stunning stone kitchen island bench, the attention to detail in specifications, the assistance with choices of textures and finishes, and probably, above all else, the communication we enjoyed, their patience with our misgivings and their preparedness to be flexible and embrace our many requests for changes.”

The Australian Institute of Architects acknowledges First Nations peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the lands, waters, and skies of the continent now called Australia.

We express our gratitude to their Elders and Knowledge Holders whose wisdom, actions and knowledge have kept culture alive.

We recognise First Nations peoples as the first architects and builders. We appreciate their continuing work on Country from pre-invasion times to contemporary First Nations architects, and respect their rights to continue to care for Country.
