Opposites attract: Light and shade; solid and void. Here they combine perfectly with recycled brick & blackened timber to form this four-bedroom, three-bathroom elevated property sitting proudly at the end of a long, secluded driveway.
The perfect lines of the black stained cedar garages merge seamlessly with the home’s exterior, to striking effect against a large-scale, white brick-clad wall. This is layered with a black stained cedar wall to create an impressive contrast and welcomes you into its mysterious entranceway from the side of the home.
Moving walls provide a warm welcome, along with 5m-high glass walls to bring the garden inside with a sense of informality not often associated with state-of-the-art living.
The kitchen’s stainless steel countertops add an unexpected industrial elegance. A two-storey bookcase beckons you from the stairwell to a floating bridge high above that leads to the master bedroom.
There are spaces within spaces. You spin walls and doorways and the house continues to unfold before you. Simple relationships between the spaces are created through light and detail.
