Urban Barn by heartly design studio

The building and interior design for Urban Barn was carefully conceived to contrast the typical residential typology within its suburban context. Situated in Melbourne’s leafy suburb of Camberwell, the Urban Barn brings bold materiality and form to the streetscape.

The client brief included an understanding that traditional design parameters should not constrain the creative process, as a young vibrant family they wanted a striking, edgy home that reflected their lifestyles and personalities.

Following on from the establishment of the barn like exterior, the interior configuration was designed around a central box structure which conceals many functional details including the staircase, pantry, bar and a powder room with a nine meter high glass ceiling.

Moody interior passageways invoke curiosity and intrigue before opening up to awe inspiring volume and natural light.

Design of the Urban Barn was not limited by precedence or conventional parameters, this opportunity to think outside the square allowed us to create an unexpectedly beautiful and highly functional building.
