The project

Architects Ink designed this 380 m2 house on a steep rural site, completed in 2018. The slope and the need to keep two significant sugar gum trees set the scale and position of the house, and its form and limited palette sit quietly in the rural setting.

The compact plan places bedrooms on the lower level and living areas above, addressing the main view and the upper road. Built into the slope to reduce its impact, the house opens to wide westerly views through full-height glazing, with white brick walls, polished concrete floors and walnut joinery inside.
