Eerwah Vale Retreat: A modern pod-style master retreat designed for passive climate management, featuring solar PV connectivity, a 7-star NatHERS rating, and an internal verandah for enhanced living and entertaining.

A modern“pod style” master retreat with a focus on passive climate management as a delightful private retreat for the owners, separate from the main dwelling but with a capacity for private entertaining.

EerwahVale Retreat is Solar PV connected and is 7-star NatHERS rated with passive thermal management incorporating ventricular passageways and glazing elements that move cooling airflows throughout and allow the home to ‘breath’. In addition, minimising air leakage via well-sealed envelope, large eaves and coupled with correct insulation, improves thermal comfort in winter and high summer when artificial climate management is needed via airconditioning, with doors and windows closed. 

An internal“verandah” can be fully opened up or closed down with full weather sealing for greater amenity provided by this additional living space

“I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Anthony Wynne-Hoelscher both as a client and a colleague on various projects in South East Queensland over the last eight years. Anthony’s approach to building design embodies a sound understanding of the design principles required to create beautiful and healthy living environments. He works collaboratively with his clients to arrive at design responses that are also energy efficient, functional and cost effective. However, it is Anthony’s understanding of form that allows him to package these requirements into elegant and distinctive buildings and spaces. The clean lined external form of the buildings that Anthony designs are only possible through a clever rationalisation of the spaces within. When confronted with difficult design challenges it is Anthony’s careful consideration of the issues and his attention to detail that inevitably produces the right response without sacrificing the essence of the building.”
