CUSTOM HOME BUILD

Tucked behind an established lot in Joondanna, this two-storey custom home by Trio Homes showcases how architectural creativity can turn site limitations into design strengths.

Built for modern family living, the residence offers a refined balance of privacy, functionality, and timeless style.

A Thoughtful Expression of Design.

Modern open-concept living room with sectional sofa, throw pillows, coffee table, and a view of the kitchen and upper balcony.
Modern kitchen with granite countertops, white cabinets, open wooden shelves, a wine fridge, and a coffee machine, illuminated by natural and recessed lighting.
Living room with a large green sectional sofa, wooden coffee table with books and plants, a flat-screen TV, potted plants, abstract artwork, and a sliding glass door leading outside.

Rear-block builds often come with challenges—but in this project, the site became an opportunity. A series of stepped floor levels guides movement through the home, subtly defining zones while maintaining a cohesive, open feel.

Private bedrooms are thoughtfully separated from communal areas, creating a calm retreat alongside vibrant living spaces.

Modern bathroom with dual sinks, large mirror, open closet with hanging clothes, vanity area with toiletries, and a freestanding bathtub.
Modern two-story house with white and black exterior, large front windows, and a driveway at sunset.

The home's design is minimalist yet warm—clean lines, generous proportions, and a palette of natural textures work together to create an inviting and enduring atmosphere. Indoor and outdoor spaces flow effortlessly, with large openings and integrated features that support both daily routines and entertaining.

Despite the constraints, even a full-sized swimming pool has been seamlessly incorporated, proving that thoughtful planning can overcome spatial limitations. Architectural details like cantilevered structures and sculpted stone finishes add subtle sophistication, while smart home systems and energy-efficient choices future-proof the build.

Modern living room corner with a wall-mounted flat screen TV, a fireplace, a green armchair with a white pillow, a tall potted plant near a large window, and part of a white sofa with pillows.
Modern backyard with a blue swimming pool, outdoor seating area, and large glass windows showing the interior of a contemporary home.

Every aspect of this Joondanna residence reflects Trio Homes’ commitment to personalised design, construction excellence, and detail-driven craftsmanship.

This project reimagines what’s possible on a rear block—delivering a space that feels generous, connected, and built to last.
