Adaptive Oasis

Adaptive Oasis

Located beside a busy highway, this three-bedroom apartment focuses on creating a safe oasis to accommodate a growing family with open and flexible spaces that can grow organically with the owners and their newborn baby.

Adaptive Oasis – View from the foyer towards the main living area, with a low timber ceiling and full-height wall panels defining the fixed utility spaces from the open communal zone.

Upon entering, the low timber ceiling that extends from the Foyer into the Kitchen area forms a clear demarcation between the fixed utility spaces and the flexible main living space. Full-height timber wall panels in the Foyer both smartly conceal the bomb shelter and study while creating a warm invitation upon entering.

​

The main living area comprises a series of interconnected spaces, including the Living and Dining areas, which are visually connected to the fully equipped open kitchen. The full-height timber frame creates a subtle demarcation, encouraging open conversations in the main living area.
