Building style
Farmhouse

A composition of three barn-like gable forms sit both within and over the land on a sloping rural lifestyle section in Coatesville. A number of architectural moments are created within the composition, enabling a variety of internal and external living spaces.

A restrained palette of dark stained Western Red Cedar and European style tray profiled metals clad the exterior. Oiled oak and soft natural stones line the interiors.

Interior & exterior spaces are linked by way of bagged clay brick walls which continue inside to out.

Brass is used selectively within the dwelling on fixtures and surfaces to be touched by occupants – including the large pivoting front door. It is intended that the brass will naturally patina overtime.
