Escape to the country
This striking new take on rural contemporary Australian architecture takes cues from traditional country shearing sheds with simplicity of form and clean lines melded with an exterior palette of corrugated galvanised iron and timber. Taking a whole-site approach to the project, farm storage was embedded under the house to take advantage of the slope, while earth works sculptured the dam, landscape, and nestled the home into the ground reducing its volume from a distance. To make the most of the views, terraced vertical facades ensure every room has sea views while a secluded entertaining space makes outdoor living year-round achievable.
