Tasmania an island at the most southern point of Australian is the location of our practice Dock4. The house on Bonnet hill is a modest building of 100 sqm on a large open rural site. It is a simple two storey, cement clad box, that sits deep on a north facing bank. The building is permeable from three sides, transferring from inside to outside with ease.
Materials are limited and raw and in many cases unfinished, low cost materials cover the larger areas while higher quality materials define the openings.

“Materials are limited and raw and in many cases unfinished, low cost materials cover the larger areas while higher quality materials define the openings”.
yup – but there is a level of detail and craftsmanship that is missing in this house.
yup indeed, but spatially i think its robust enough that the level of detail doesn’t matter…

Projeto simples, mas bem planejado. http://migre.me/FBtd
Lovely house. I like the level of restraint.
How are the openings weatherproofed at the head – are there head flashings? Do you expect that some of the protruding clear-finished timber reveals might deteriorate quite quickly?
exit, only the upper level bathroom of the house?
oo, the students all of the sudden become critics…
have you guys ever heard of a tight budget?
Bravo, well done…
