Castle Cove House / TERROIR

Designed by Australian architects TERROIR, the history of the single-family house in Sydney during the last century is a record of changing conditions in regard to their relationship with the landscape. Previous responses range from ignorance, to mimicry, to contrast. Responses have involved the importation of ideas from elsewhere and the futile quest to develop a ‘vernacular’. It is in this context, and aware of this history, that this house has been designed.
