Owen and Vokes
Owen and Vokes (est.2003) is the Brisbane based practice of Paul Owen and Stuart Vokes specialising in residential and boutique commercial projects. The practice stresses the significance of design in the built environment and seeks to work with independent, inspired clients with a shared ambition for genuine architectural outcomes.
Owen and Vokes are primarily interested in the phenomenology of architecture and room making informed by human occupation. Evolving built typologies explore themes of enclosure and pleasure, and idealize the presence of nature.
There is a preference for making plain buildings with humble materials which distil the potency of enclosure.
Traditional architectural practice and building materials are valued for they endure.
The prevailing aesthetics of austerity, not to be confused as modernist dogma, reveals a cultural resistance to fashionable affectation.
The Happy Haus White series by Owen and Vokes embodies these core practice values with sophisticated and versatile planning arrangements, and beautiful interiors which anticipate habitation.
