GOODMAN HOUSE
ACO Architects designs a residence tailored to the needs of a multi-family household, blending function and harmony.
The Goodman House is a bespoke residence for two sisters who built their careers in the concrete precasting industry. The brief called for a major remodel of the existing house to support multi-family living, with added accessibility through an elevator and new communal and private spaces.
​
The design pays tribute to the owners' professional roots with a facade of triangular precast panels, bolted into place to form a folded exterior that casts dynamic shadows across the day. The bold exterior is balanced with an understated elegance achieved via a monochromatic palette with refined detailing.
Through strategic spatial and landscape planning, the home captures the relaxed "Eastie" atmosphere while efficiently maximising the site's constraints.
A bold metal staircase connects the upper floors, featuring framed viewports that look out of and into the house. Meanwhile, a monsoon window provides natural ventilation without the need for open windows. These strategies reveal how adaptive design can elevate living experiences while exploring architectural expression.
Architology Interiors enriches the home with interiors that balance togetherness with moments of retreat.
The Goodman House embodies ACO Architects’ philosophy of human, architecture, and intelligence in harmony.
The interior design, crafted by Architology Interiors, enriches these spaces with a human-centric sensibility that honours both shared moments and private needs. The interiors were designed to strike a balance between connection and privacy, with communal areas opening seamlessly to the outdoors and pockets of sanctuary offering moments of calm.
The Goodman House reflects ACO Architects' philosophy of human-centred design, thoughtful architecture, and intelligent solutions working in harmony. With interiors by Architology Interiors, the residence is a bespoke creation that is the extension of its owners.
