Award Winning Modern Gable home
This home is meticulously crafted to optimize space and is perfectly situated to bask in sunlight all day on the expansive deck. A harmonious blend of Western Red Cedar and wide-profile vertical metal cladding adds to its striking appeal. The boardwalk entryway introduces a grand schist feature wall that elegantly extends into the lounge, embracing the corner fireplace. Ideal for hosting guests in the gallery-style kitchen, the home also boasts built-in cabinetry, vaulted ceilings, and ample attic storage.
Step through the charming courtyard-style entrance that guides you to the main door of this contemporary home, where the entryway itself stands as a remarkable feature.
Featuring an open-concept living, kitchen, and dining space, complemented by vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and sliding doors that flood the area with light and seamlessly blend the indoors with the outdoors.
As you enter through the front door, a stunning stone feature wall immediately captures your attention, elegantly blending the natural beauty of the outdoors with the home's interior. This exquisite stonework continues throughout the residence, adding charm and sophistication to spaces like the kitchen and living area.
The build
Challenges and solutions
The site presented a couple of challenges when it came to the design. This was due to its unusual shape, limited size, and various setbacks that constrained the site. To address these issues, the solution required a high level of creativity and innovation in both design and spatial planning. This meant thinking outside the box to maximise the utility of every square inch of the home, incorporating multifunctional elements, and using vertical space more effectively. The design had to be both aesthetically pleasing and highly functional, ensuring that despite the restrictions, the final outcome would be a harmonious and efficient use of the site.
