HOUSE ON THE HILL
PERCHED HIGH UPON THE HILL, OVERLOOKING PORT PHILLIP BAY, THIS NEW HOUSE IS COMPOSED OF 2 PAVILIONS, OR WINGS, WRAPPED AROUND A POOL TO PROVIDE SHELTER FROM PREVAILING WINDS. ONE PAVILION HOLDS THE LIVING AREAS, AND THE OTHER FORMS A QUIETER BEDROOMS ZONE FOR A BUSY FAMILY.
STONE + RECYCLED TIMBER WAS USED THROUGHOUT THE HOUSE TO CREATE A TIMELESS AESTHETIC.

BUILT HIGH UPON THE HILL TO CATCH THE SEA BREEZE
Inspired by the coastal setting of the Mornington Peninsula, with a distinctly "Australian" palette of materials of sandstone + recycled Ironbark posts, and a V shaped floor plan, this family home is orientated around a striking blue-tiled swimming pool.
Recycled ironbark posts from an old railway bridge in NSW, where one of the owners grew up, were used around the pool and at the front to instil a connection between old and new.
OVER TIME, THE COPPER FINISH WILL AGE BEAUTIFULLY TO A SOFT PATINA, SITTING HAPPILY WITH THE WEATHERED TIMBER POSTS
