一个季节性和24小时的体验，它与美丽的自然光线的冬季月接合，并且可以看到变化的天气模式。夏季，升高的平台和大的开放区域适应自然通风，同时大的内部庭院受到保护，并成为第二生活区。夜幕降临时，卧室透过大面积的玻璃窗俯瞰城市的灯光，并通过桉树的树木来迎接前方的一天，迎来了忧郁的非直接晨光。

A seasonal and 24-hour experience, it engages the winter months with beautiful natural light and views out to changing weather patterns. In summer the raised platform and large open areas accommodate natural ventilation whilst the large interior courtyard is protected from the elements and becomes a second living zone. At night the bedrooms look out over the city lights through large glazed areas and welcome the melancholy non-direct morning light through the eucalyptus trees to greet the day ahead.

在当地植被和考拉覆盖范围内，严格的建筑围护层控制着建造的脚印。该住宅分为4个区域，即中央过渡通道流通区、公共生活区、私人睡眠/舒适区和大型私人庭院(所有其他区域都有)。

A strict tight building envelope within a native vegetation and koala overlay governs the built footprint. The house is organised into 4 areas, namely a central transitional entry circulation zone, a public living zone, a private sleeping/ amenity area and a large private courtyard (which all other zones circulate).

The house is wrapped in a locally sourced vertically clad native Australian hardwood board and batten cladding. This emulates its vertically native treed environment whilst light and shadow change on the three-dimensional cladding throughout the days progress. The two main living/ private pavilions are defined by a dark stained Australian hardwood ship lap vertically clad entry/ circulation area enlivening the architectural experience from the hideaway laneway view. The passerby pedestrian is welcomed with an unassuming surprise in a neighborhood of common suburbia. Internally, a similar theme of textures continues. Locally sourced recycled Australian hardwood floorboards line the floor, whilst un-apologetically character filled native hardwood joinery celebrates the craft of local tradesmen and qualities of local wood. Travertine stone in the kitchen picks up on the warm tones but shows many layers of geology adding to the experience of the material.
