This house is arranged around an internal court in the basement level, with a three-level
atrium above it. The entry level has the living, dining and kitchen to one side, and a
bedroom / living suite on the other.

There are four bedrooms at the upper level, and additional living and entertainment spaces in the basement. A light fiberglass roof provides shaded parking for 2-3 cars on the right, and there is a lawn and garden to the left of the entrance.

​

The house is clad in exposed pointed brick which respects and identifies various features of the house such as floor levels, window-sills and lintels. Plastered concrete painted gray provides a contrast to the brickwork.

Natural Climate Control Features

​

The multilevel atrium provides a natural route for warm air inside the house to rise up and escape from upper-level windows. This natural movement of air prevents build-up of excessive heat, particularly on the upper floors and provides a comfortable interior temperature with minimum air-conditioning.

​

Additionally, most rooms open outward into a shaded verandah or balcony which protect the windows being exposed to the direct sun and further moderate glare and heat.
