A place of calm and repose. An opposite to the clients busy lifestyle.  A place of rest. Strong connections are drawn with both the immediate and the distant landscape. Voids are sliced through the building to allow  sunlight and trees. Trees act as a seasonal body clock and alter the hue of the building as leaves move from green to red to white blossoms. The voids connect the building to the rock shelf, the trees, the immediate, allowing these elements to permeate the living and sleeping areas.

Set on a steep site overlooking the Derwent River, the house addresses a large Bluegum and copse of tall silver gums. Vertical circulation starts level with the canopy and descends with views through branches, stepping down the trunk until you reach the lower level where the tree passes through the deck.
The house is a storage display unit for its inhabitants and their stuff.

On a very small site 2 units will slot together in a manner allowing both to maintain privacy and good solar gain. Conceptual stages are ongoing.

The land has been conceptually peeled back as a layer, the house slid in, a box /wedge pushed under some carpet. An attempt has been made to integrate directly into the landform. Planned around a central void, spaces are directed at specific points in the distant landscape.The house is conceived as a paired back shell, the focus being on the surrounding wilderness.

A compact and simple 130sqm house with 2 bedrooms and a studio on a steep site at the base of Mt. Wellington. Wedged between drainage easements, the H shaped plan separates the public and private parts of the house by the galley kitchen, with the negative space creating sheltered decks. A curtain wall of polycarbonate to the north maintains privacy and solar access, and picture windows frame views to surrounding forest.
