Legge Street House banner

The Legge Street House was a new build designed to provide flexible living configurations with maximum spatial function and amenity in a compact footprint. The dwelling captures expansive mountain views and borrows from the natural surrounds to enhance the sense of space. The design utilises passive solar design, natural ventilation and a central thermal heat mass to provide an energy-efficient dwelling.
