The Naked Architect S2 E1: WARC Studio

Topic: The Ideal Client
Project: Courtyard House Brighton
Architect: WARC Studio

Episode Length: 18 mins

WARC Studio is a boutique multi disciplinary practice that specialises in creating highly crafted spatial solutions that integrate architecture, interior, landscape and sustainable design. This project provides alterations to a 1930’s residence in a dense inner urban location with challenging solar orientation. The additions provide an efficient building envelope and accompanying courtyards that maximise available natural light and create a tapestry of spaces, materials and details within the confined site area.

The Naked Architect is an initiative of Open House Melbourne, with support from the Architects Registration Board of Victoria, and in association with ArchiTeam. The second series was launched in 2018 as part of the year-round program of Open House.
