Mihaly SlocombeWeather House is a bespoke home for a young, nature-loving family on a quintessentially compact Northcote block.
Our clients Claire and Brent cherished the character of their century-old worker's cottage but required more considered space and flexibility in their home. Claire and Brent are camping enthusiasts, and in response their house is a love letter to the outdoors: a rich, durable environment infused with the grounded ambience of being in nature.
From the street, the dark cladding of the sensitive rear extension echoes the existing cottage!s roofline, becoming a subtle shadow of the original house in both form and tone. As you move through the home, the double-height extension invites the climate and native landscaping inside at every turn. The light-bathed lounge, dining room and kitchen are anchored around, and seamlessly connected to, a versatile outdoor living area. A double-sided fireplace embedded into the house’s rear wall brings warmth and ambience to the lounge, and inspires a campfire atmosphere in the back yard.
Championing tactility and durability, the material palette features polished concrete floors, blackbutt timber joinery and concrete brick walls. Peach and sage tones are employed as accents throughout the lower level, and amplified upstairs where sage forms the tonal base for the moody main bedroom. An adjacent private deck creates an additional tether to the outdoors, and houses planters and trellises that will decorate the home’s exterior with greenery.
From the tactile and textured finishes of the interior to the surrounding Australian native garden that you just want to touch, the house encapsulates the feeling of being part of the outdoors; like Claire and Brent are camping at home. It is a tribute to Mother Nature, Weather House’s muse.
Pepo Botanic DesignThis water sensitive garden has a distinct Australian character. Pepo responded to the hot, dry and windy microclimate with a hardy collection of plants and iconic palette of materials. Corten steel and recycled timber were used to build windbreaks, railway sleepers were used with stainless steel wire to form a sculptural clothesline and locally-sourced sandstone sits amongst sweeps of silver and rust coloured planting. A magnificent, existing Jacaranda mimosifolia anchors the garden with an outdoor eating space underneath.
What the client says:
Everyone who comes around the corner to our back garden says… WOW!

Northwest Native Landscapes LLCDramatic plant textures, modern hardscaping and sharp angles enhanced this mid-century modern bungalow. Soft plants were chosen to contrast with the sharp angles of the pathways and hard edges of the MCM home, while providing all-season interest. Horizontal privacy screens wrap the front porch and create intimate garden spaces – some visible only from the street and some visible only from inside the home. The front yard is relatively small in size, but full of colorful texture.
The Distinctive GardenerThye new courtyard, low rendered block wall tropical planting, artificial turf, make this a very easy to care for courtyard.

Yard MavenOld lawn was transformed into a drought-resistant garden offering ever-changing colors and textures. Turf removal rebate from the local water agency helped offset the cost. A new stucco wall with iron gates were built to create an enclosed porch/courtyard to give homeowners a much-needed buffer between their home and the hustle and bustle of a big city . Recycled bricks grace the new wide walkway and enclosed porch.

Adam's GardenThe goal in this job was to blend the driveway with the garden, creating a seamless space that accommodates parking, plants and people. Railway sleeper & turf driveways are increasingly popular and they are easy on the eye and effective for a space that blends as a car space and a garden. Some specialty feature work is the exposed water tank on a railway sleeper bench.
Hope & Heart Garden DesignDry creek bed assists run off during storms and is an attractive feature allowing interesting low plantings
