ProfileGarth Chapman’s passion in life has always been designing and building homes that people will love to own. His design priorities are always aimed at concepts that are pleasing to the eye, easy to live in and affordable. Recently, Garth & his design team have focused their talents on developing a range of plans that would suit clients who love the lifestyle and performance of a Queenslander but wanted something a little more contemporary. The “Contemporary Queenslander” is the latest result of these design initiatives.
DESIGN ELEMENTS There were 8 essential design elements that were paramount to the development of the “Contemporary Queenslander” concept: 1. The homes must be very aesthetically pleasing in their external façades; 2. The homes must feature similar benefits to the Queenslander; 3. The homes must provide significant saving on energy costs, by being very energy efficient and suit our tropical climate; 4. The homes must feature large outdoor verandahs and convenient external living areas; 5. The homes must provide flow-through ventilation for maximum benefit from natural breezes; 6. The layout and feel of the homes must be contemporary in their make-up but timeless in their appeal; 7. The homes must offer a genuine attractive alternative to slab-floor rendered block homes; 8. The homes must provide our clients with value for money. The Garth Chapman team is very excited by the “Contemporary Queenslander” concept and look forward to designing a floor plan for you to suit your personal requirements. If you feel strongly about these 8 essential design elements of the “Contemporary Queenslander”, but have your own ideas on the home you would like to build, we would enjoy discussing your ideas in more detail.
