Text description provided by the architects. Cascade House is an early 1900s timber cottage that sits on the western side of one of Paddington's many hills. As a house for a family of 5, their brief was a place for kids to play independently, but just in sight. An addition would become a place to gather for meals and games. Key to their brief was a place to picnic on the grass, under a tree, and in the sky. The challenge was connecting to the ground on a sloping site and protecting it from the afternoon sun.
