The house prioritises light and cross ventilation before finish. Openings are placed to move air through the depth of the plan, and every principal room is given something green to look at.

Inside, timber battens, stone and warm linear light continue the language of the facade, so the exterior and interior are read as one continuous idea rather than two commissions.

  • Deep cantilevered timber soffit
  • Perforated screens for privacy and breeze
  • Indoor–outdoor living around a planted court
  • Continuous material language, inside and out
