A project that makes it all worthwhile.....

Great clients with a sense of fun, aesthetic appreciation and a wonderfully playful art collection. It has been a long time coming (3 years in the planning) but such a satisfying result.

Our brief was to design a home that promoted family living - shared multi-use spaces and very few walls. Designed from the inside out - the exterior shell simply wraps around the interior space. Building envelope compliance constraints resulted in us coming up with a diagonal ridge line that has created a unique shape to the ceiling on the top floor. our client was instrumental in working through a design that played on that shape. it's great when designer and client can work together like that.
