Text description provided by the architects. A new house in the suburbs of Sydney’s upper north shore using vernacular forms and simple gables defined by differing materials with a link in the middle giving a glimpse of what lies beyond while providing a framework for privacy. The plan wraps around landscaped courtyards connecting internal spaces that engage with the outdoors. Located in a leafy suburban area surrounded by simple post-war cottages, the architects found it very important to design a house which was contemporary in nature but did not stand out obnoxiously amongst its more traditional neighbors.
