This home was shaped by the vision of its designer-owner and carefully crafted in response to a challenging sloping site. Strong gabled forms create a striking profile, while warm timber accents soften the bold exterior palette to add depth and texture. Material selection was driven by durability and precision. Dark vertical cladding is balanced by timber detailing, with crisp junctions and refined window surrounds showcasing a high level of craftsmanship.
The clean lines of the roof forms required careful planning and exceptional execution to achieve their sharp architectural finish. The split-level configuration of the house maximises functionality, with garaging and entry at the lower level and primary living spaces above to capture light, outlook and privacy. The result is a home that feels grounded yet elevated, both visually and spatially. Sustainability underpins the home’s performance with a strong focus on thermal mass, superior insulation and structural strength. Large, carefully oriented windows promote passive solar gain, allowing natural warmth to be absorbed by the polished concrete floor and released gradually as temperatures drop. Operable windows and skylights provide effective passive ventilation, encouraging natural airflow and reducing reliance on mechanical heating and cooling. The home will perform sustainably and provide comfort through the seasons for years to come.
