Old and new can live beautifully together - when the connection is intentional.
In this home, Shane talks through the balance between traditional Queenslander character and modern family living.
The higher ceilings, generous glass, and natural light honour that classic Queenslander feel, while the open-plan kitchen, brick hearth, detailed cabinetry, and full butler’s pantry bring a more contemporary layer to the design.
As Shane explains, it’s all part of “the old and the new connection.”
It’s a beautiful example of how thoughtful Building Design can preserve character while creating a home that works seamlessly for the way people live today.
