Somers House
2007
Status : Under Construction
This young couple requested that the focus of primary living and bedroom spaces
accepted south views to Westernport Bay over the street, while the house had to
provide northerly aspect to the rear yard and swimming pool. This combined with
rear vehicle access to the shed and a limited budget made for an intensive process
resulting in carefully screened utility areas and transparency from rear entertaining
zones through the upper living space to the front viewing deck.
The resultant design is a compact form where roof folds to wall, providing privacy
while permitting framed view. The upper floor areas are to be finished in rough
cast render which should prove interesting as an elevated masonry container over
lower timber cladding. |
