Gable House

On Gadigal Land of the Eora Nation A modern and spatially dramatic home sitting quietly in a beautiful tree-lined street in the established suburb of Kensington. Conceived as a series of simple volumes stepping down the site, connected to the side and rear gardens to capture northern light, breezes and greenery. Inspired by the clients of Chinese and Irish Heritage, the home is an expression of their collective memory of simple European and Scandinavian Barn Style homes as well as tropical modernist homes experienced during their time living abroad in Singapore and Dubai. The principles of simplicity and sensuality are achieved through a rational layout separating the public and private parts of the house and a dramatic spatial experience through the sequence of rooms from the front door entry through to the double height volume of the Living Dining and Kitchen at the rear, opening out to the garden and pool.
