Cairns Residence
• The house encompasses the very cool and dramatic simplicity of mid 20th Century American architecture within the rich and diverse natural environment of the tropical rainforest.
• Two main wings are connected by a fully glazed entrance corridor with views to the pool, pond and rainforest.
• In line with Mid Century architecture, the roof appears flat, but in the tropics the roof sheet is required to be at an angle to cope with the quantity of rain.
• Main living area separated from kitchen by a fully integrated service wall containing all the kitchen equipment.
• Master bedroom located to front of bedroom wing benefitting from full pool and valley views.
• Guest bedrooms enjoy a full length water feature with integrated external bath to a private rear courtyard.
• Garage is separated from main house.
• Access to front door is by way of a marble bridge over a pond feature.
• Service rooms are located in lower non-habitable rooms below main floor.
• House orientated to view, but considers prevailing breezes
