Bespoke dual occupancy
Bespoke architectural living in O'Connor.
Blending seamlessly into their inner north surrounds, these executive single-story dual occupancy residences, have been architecturally designed by Quest Architecture to withstand and embrace the seasonal climate of Canberra.
Thoughtful design, meticulous planning and quality craftsmanship executed to perfection.
Our clients brief to Quest Architecture was to reimagine the existing property, creating two bespoke single-storey townhouses on this O’Connor block amidst a streetscape of large two storey dwellings.
The single-storey urban infill of this project can’t be understated. It was an incredibly challenging planning exercise in relation to the boundary to boundary development and dual driveways required to successfully achieve our clients brief. However, this is not evident in the end outcome which demonstrates how much skill and expertise has been put into the design and construction to deliver a unique and challenging outcome in a seamless, comfortable, functional, well-constructed and high quality manner.

This considered design achieved our clients brief for two 4-bedroom dwellings each with 2 living areas that received natural sunight and ventilation to all rooms.
Raised ceilings and high level windows to the entry, and a clever combination of internal atriums and skylights complimented the floorplan layout with wet areas and kitchen along the shared wall facing outward. This thoughtful positioning creates a sensation of independence from the neighbouring dwelling.
No expense has been spared in the considered design, planning and building of this intricate project, to showcase high quality, innovation and comfort. A pleasure to work on for both Quest Architecture and Element, our clients are thrilled with the result.

Words of praise
from happy clients
Element was referred to me by a friend, and great reputation, so there was already trust established there.
From the get go there was just this open communication that they helped us to feel a part of the process. Dennis is always there overseeing it and its very seamless the way the trades were organised.
If you’re looking to build, go to Element!
They are a local Canberra builder, they looked after us, talked to us, they’re not going to take you for a ride, they will build you a house that’s a home and make you feel like a person.
I never ever thought I would move from my house of 43 years.
Element has been fantastic, I couldn’t say a bad word. Dennis is lovely and always answered any of my questions.
It's going to be exciting and interesting to live in my own house that I've planned and helped design.
It’s been very quick and the handover was much sooner than originally planned. The system for variations and the processes to follow have been really good, it’s all been very user-friendly, very time-saving. It’s been quite a good experience actually, no surprises. The team has been so awesome, very patient, nice and they really guided me as well.
