T House is a courtyard house designed for a young family and combines simple construction methods with material detailing to create a liveable family home with a refined finish.

Built on an infill landlocked site, the compact “T” shaped floor plan is designed around the concept of looking “inward” when looking outward. The simple floor plan splits the site, creating a private courtyard to the north and garden area to the south for the house to look outward upon.

The materiality of T House takes inspiration from the iconic beach shacks in the area with steel roofs, white weatherboard walls above a brick base. The contemporary skillion roofline and crisp detail execution, creates a premium feel and finish beyond the actual build cost of the home.
