Architects Ink have worked with Krivic on many award-winning projects over the last 10 years.
This collaboration evolved from the shared ambition to create high quality, architecturally-designed homes with reduced construction costs. In a saturated market of home builders within Adelaide, Krivic House provides a unique opportunity.
This project was particularly challenging due to the complexities of the Character Overlay applicable to the site and locality. Such Overlays seek a repetition or reinforcement of identifiable themes to maintain the recognised character associated with a local area.
The Krivic House provides a juxtaposition to the identifiable character by presenting something completely different to the norm – a contemporary mid-century building, yet one that is sympathetic to typical character bungalows in the area.
1 Bourke Street is a great example of how a design can respond to its context without mimicking or referencing the architectural form, style and detailing that is intrinsic to the character area.
