This dramatic residence reflects the owner’s sense of playfulness and love of colours. (As manufacturers and retailers of children’s toys this should not have been a surprise!) The site benefits from a northerly aspect with views into the Kangaroo Valley.

The brief was to extend an existing log cabin located on a rural property.
The design solution created a separate structure connected to the existing building with a serpentine masonry wall. This wall also serves to integrate the residence with the landscape incorporating a pergola reminiscent of a sculptured tree. Glimpsed views are gradually revealed by openings in the wall.
To the delight of the owners, indoor and outdoor rooms have been created maximising solar access while framing different vistas.
