BUILD // WESTSTYLE

This project is a modest home complementing its surrounding locale, celebrating both the private and greater context. It is a representation of the architect’s ambition of designing a crafted, connected and enduring house. Sited on a narrow block, the house is grounded with a palette of dark toned stone and masonry elements. A crafted ‘flemish bond’ entry wall welcomes the visitor. Internally, thick-walled brickwork axis wall connects the main rooms on ground, voided by brick basket woven lintel archways to adjacent rooms.

Louvered bookends to the house and a thermal chimney allow the clients to adjust to season and time of day. The kitchen occupies the centre of the house and is surrounded by an open layering of dining, shaded terraces, pond, gardens and summer gazebo spaces. Sculpted ceilings mirror the morning and afternoon sunlight and become awash into night with a warm glow from concealed uplighters.

1 / 7

“From the very start of our journey in building, we felt at home and very comfortable with Weststyle. Mary, from the start was very patient and confident in expressing her ideas about our block. As first time builders, we were spoilt by the quality of service and detail that was offered by Weststyle. They really listened and took an interest in what our lifestyle was and manifested it into our home design. Every detail in the design was considered and well thought out and it translated into our eventual dream home. As we were clients who are under a pretty strict budget, fitting everything we wanted into the design was very challenging. Mary and Courtney went above and beyond in accommodating for our cost cutting requests. Moreover, the building environment during this time saw unprecedented cost increases in labour and materials. However, Tony and the team were upfront with costs and found innovative solutions in keeping costs down to the minimum. Although ultimately we had to stretch beyond our initial budget, we felt it was reasonable given the market environment and we appreciated Tony and the team for the transparency and their willingness to compromise to build our home. Sam, our supervisor, was also fantastic and very responsive to all our requests and questions. He was wonderful to work with and also an example of going the extra mile in ensuring the building process go smoothly and the end product is top quality. We are forever grateful to the Weststyle Team in building a wonderful dream home for us.”
