Innovative design harmonizing with nature, featuring a top story that 'floats' above a solid base, maximizing natural light and creating an ideal balance for family living and entertaining in a secluded valley setting.

Making the most of this difficult yet secluded site, was a real challenge. The top story of the house ‘floats’ above the solid base form, so that when inside, its like you are ‘in the trees’.

The plan steps back from north to south, allowing as as much penetration of natural light into the plan as possible. Because the property is in a valley, making the most of the sun’s exposure was paramount in the design.

The design also offers the optimal balance between a family home and a venue for entertaining guests and extended family.

“We were looking for someone to design a scheme involving the subdivision of our property, a new house for us and another house on the property, for us to sell. Scott came highly recommended by local people in the industry, as he has been involved with this type of development before. This turned out to be a godsend as we found that it takes an enormous amount of knowledge to navigate the Council’s maze of rules and regulations. Scott also has a valuable network of engineers and consultants at hand, to work in conjunction with him, to keep the project moving. Because of the relationship Scott has with them, he is able to get prompt action and responses from them. Scott also likes to work at a fast pace, so nothing takes too long! In my experience, this is not the norm for most project managers! We are very excited by the design that Scott has come up with for us. After our initial discussions he came back with a design that was so right that it basically never changed. It did evolve with minor tweaks and further input from both us and Scott, but they were refinements only. We felt very engaged with Scott during the whole design process and now look forward to continuing that relationship as we commence the build. We would highly recommend Scott for anyone wanting to build either their dream home or a development project. He is creative, engaging and totally committed to your project.”
