Beneath a sculptural copper roof that crests and curves like waves is a home that is expansive yet intimate, crisp yet cosy. The clients wanted gezelligheid (the Dutch term for conviviality, friendly, enjoyable and cosy) and that’s precisely what they’ve got. The roof, a complex feat of construction, rests atop a concrete structure with myriad angles that create interest for the owners as they move through the 405sqm home. Following the curved roofline is an expertly crafted ply ceiling, resulting in a deep sense of warmth and intimacy. The warmth is further enhanced by the engineered timber flooring and, more practically, by in-slab heating throughout the ground floor. Expansive curved windows fill the four-bedroom, three-bathroom home with light. Multiple living spaces, inside and out, provide plenty of spots to relax and make entertaining a breeze. The practical yet elegant kitchen spills into the dining room and then onto the patio, which is sheltered by another of those astonishing copper waves. This one-of-a-kind outdoor room further links the interior of this special home to the garden and stream beyond.
