Imagine a world without internet, email or mobile phones!
You are invited to join in the celebration!
Now imagine a few business people who happened to hear about pending state legislation that would utterly
destroy their business and that of many other similar businesses.
This is not fiction, this is the story of BDAQ.
The story of how this news spread throughout Queensland in a flash, of how the fledgling group took on the
might of a professional institute with a hundred years history to first delay and then utterly defeat the
legislation, of how the few became hundreds and of how business competitors became business colleagues, is
the story of the Building Designers Association of Queensland.
It is truly David and Goliath story that transformed the design industry forever. It is about the creation of a
whole new profession, about the men and women who shaped the future and about when good building
design was given back to the people.
And it was all done without internet, email or a mobile phone!
Building Designers from throughout Queensland and elsewhere in Australia are gathering in Brisbane for a
gala anniversary dinner to celebrate 20 years of building design in Queensland.
a
1990The world has changed
a lot in twenty years!

TIMBER WINDOWS & DOORS
Impressive enhancements, adding real valueSustainable timber windows and doors are not just an impressive enhancement. They are energy effi cient, built to last and look simply stunning.

Whatever the opening, we can fi ll it with any type and style of timber windows and doors you choose. Using the Duce Selection Process, possibilities are endless and tailor-made solutions are our forte here at Duce.

DESIGN FEATURE
LOCATED IN THE HEART OFPADDINGTON IS THIS STUNNINGDESIGN FROM JAYE IRVING OFBAREFOOT SUSTAINABLE DESIGNS.
Protected by a demolition controlzone as a character house, the1920's Queenslander was in direneed of a revamp. Now sitting atopa hill overlooking the Brisbane citycentre it has an air of charm andsophistication.
The renovation called for thereplacement of the existingkitchen and repairs for thebathroom areas, as well as theaddition of four new bedroomsand a rumpus room on the groundlevel creating a private sanctuaryfor the first floor.
The longitudinal axis is orientatednorth, allowing for large passiveaccess of winter sunlight whilethe elevated position andextensive use of high and groundlevel louvers captures summerbreezes, keeping the homecomfortable all year round.
The open plan living areas are designed to connect with the outdoor areas with improvedefficiency through sustainable approaches to water and powerusage, while improved design enhances air quality and passive flow through ventilation, as well as maximising natural lighting.
Water and energy savingtechnology such as solar hot water,water tank, flow restrictors and energy efficient lighting are used within the completed project and the addition of a two car garage that blends in with the scale of the street gives the home a more modern approach without compromisingthe aesthetics of the building.
Sweeping floor to ceiling doors and windows create a strong connectionwith the green outcropping nature strips and surrounding vegetationand the restoration of the externalfacades rather than replacementmaintains the 1920's character of the home, keeping with the integrityof the surrounding cultural and architectural landscape.

Why is COLORBOND® steel with Thermatech® solar refl ectance technology so important? Roofing is a key consideration when designing any building to
be thermally efficient. That’s why Thermatech® solar reflectance
technology is included in the specification of all 20 colours in
the standard COLORBOND® steel range, at no extra cost.
In hot weather, COLORBOND® steel with Thermatech® can help
reduce peak roof temperatures by up to 11°C and provide the
equivalent to an increase in insulation of up to R1.0. Compared
to roofing materials of equivalent colour with lower solar reflectance,
COLORBOND® steel can reduce annual heating and cooling
energy consumption by up to 20%*. For specification tools, thermal properties, online warranty and more visit bluescopesteel.com.au/projects or call 1800 022 999.

DESIGN FEATURE
The Building Designer No.158 December 200920
Utilising a pavilion style design, the
home includes distinctly separate
zones for family, living and sleeping
quarters while remaining cohesive
and functional. Due to the
steepness of the site, the home
incorporates a stepping design
which also enhances light and
ventilation within the residence.
The design focuses around an
elevated central lounge, dining and
kitchen area. This area provides
access to the outdoors from all
directions, while maintaining focus
on the sweeping mountain views.
Secondary living spaces open on to
decks and down to the yard,
creating a good interaction
between indoor and outdoor areas.
Bedrooms are all co-located on the
top floor, but separated by glass
atrium stairs. These staircases also
connect the pavilions, ensuring
maximum light and airflow. In hot
weather, the atriums act as passive
heat ducts, drawing the heat up
out of living rooms.
Extensive use of feature timbers
and second quality flooring gives
the home life, allowing it to blend
with the rural setting and majestic
views, while widespread use of
louvers allows control of privacy
and noise between the various
living areas.
The pavilion style allows every
major room in the house to absorb
the majestic mountain views, while
interacting perfectly with each
other. Externally, blue and cream
main wall panels are offset by
zincalume panels to create a warm
mosaic of colours with Bluescope
Colorbond roofing across the
whole project.
The resultant home is aesthetically
pleasing and functional,
constructed predominantly of
sustainable and re-useable
materials ensuring a low
maintenance and luxurious
environment for the entire family.
A FAMILY HOME WITH A POINT OF DIFFERENCE, CAMP MOUNTAIN RETREAT BY OWEN BATCHELOR
OF EAST COAST BUILDING DESIGN PRESENTS AS AN ICON OF LUXURY IN A BREATHTAKING SETTING.
