Description by architect: This residence is a modern rural retreat, a second home away from the client’s inner city penthouse. Designed to be minimalistic in detail, robust and functional, while maintaining a country charm and strong connection to the rural landscape, each space within the new extension sits in perfect harmony with its surrounds.
It depicts an authentic and unpretentious interpretation of the modern Australian rural home. Raw, robust and rugged the strong forms of the in-situ concrete elements are then complimented by the natural earthy tones of the recycled rough sawn Australian messmate timber cladding.
