By Hurley Architects
The Home is positioned on a north facing, sloping site, with extensive views across the distant farmland and hills in the east and north, and a native bush enclave to the West. The house is an assemblage of mono pitch roofs, layered across a number of levels that follow the contour of the site, with spaces opening from the main axis spine. The home is sheathed in a mix of blonded, random width cedar weatherboards, cedar fascias and barge boards, contrasted with black powder coated joinery and smalls area of black steel cladding. Intermediary glazed areas connect to views beyond and let light deep into the plan. The predominant use of cedar lends a rural vernacular to the project, while the orientation of the boards and their random width add interest and a vertical aspect to the long plan.
