Plan.

Extensive north-facing glass makes the most of the long and flat site, with a double-height living space that stretches from the Kitchen at the western end to the Study in the east, where it pops-up into a cosy loft retreat with even better views from the mini-balcony. The East and West ‘shed’s’ are treated differently to the North & South sheds with both materiality and detailing, where the facades are punctuated and shaded by deep roof overhangs with uncomplicated edges.

Sustainably selected materials include locally quarried stone, nexsteel cladding, spotted gum timber cladding and decking which is left to grey-off. Thermally broken aluminium double-glazed windows combine with the hydronic underfloor heating and cooling in the polished concrete slab (elec heatpump on solar power), impressive cross ventilation, and thermal mass in the living space (via the feature stone walls) to make this a very energy-efficient way to live.
