Welcome to the eye-catching home of ‘Over the Rainbow’, a contemporary abode that was completed in 2021.
Defined by two mono-pitch roofs at slightly different pitches, the home is clad in vertical cedar, with a cap of darker-toned eaves that slice down on an angle inspired by a dwelling the home owner had spotted online (House Under Eaves by MRTN Architects). “We call them the ‘eyebrows’,” says the home owners. Eyebrows are certainly lifted as soon as visitors pass through the schist-flanked entry.The elevated site and well-considered design maximise expansive views of the mountains and lake while the interior spaces combine to make this a welcoming family home.
