The project
Shane Denman Architects designed Valley House, a modest three-bedroom home completed in 2018 on a steep bush block in the Currumbin Valley. The owners had lived in a larger family home at the top of the 3.25 acre site for a decade and, once their children had moved out, subdivided the land to build at its lower end.
One of the owners is an architect, and the design kept the house small and the budget restrained so that the emphasis stays on the site. Timber and dark-clad pavilions connect the outdoor living spaces closely with the lush landscape.
