Towoomba House redefines traditional aesthetics by blending heritage with a contemporary emphasis on connected living. Drawing inspiration from Sydney’s diverse architectural landscape, the design pays homage to the city’s rich history while fostering a sense of community and openness.
When the owners of a 1920s Californian Bungalow on Sydney’s lower north shore desired more living space, Sandbox Studio proposed a pavilion-style extension rather than building upward. This new, low-lying structure preserves the original streetscape view while creating a private domain at the rear of the property.
The Earth House, designed by Sandbox Studio, embodies a harmonious relationship between architecture and the natural world. Tucked into its environment, this single-story home seamlessly integrates with the landscape, offering an intimate retreat that feels timeless yet modern.
Bringing natural light inward and allowing it to dance internally throughout the day, River of Life House is deeply connected within its natural setting. As a testament to sustainable living and the need for the notion of the home
Owen and Tom, a young professional couple, engaged Sandbox Studio to transform their rundown Victorian terrace in Paddington, Sydney, into a modern home, while restoring its heritage character.
The latest project by Sandbox Studio is a compact ‘forever house’ designed for a couple of retirees. Its environmental design and space-efficient planning make excellent use of the site, allowing them to live near their children and give them room to roam.
Replacing an existing home within Picton, in New South Wales, the proposal retains some of the remaining foundations, reusing materials across the site in a more deliberate way.
