A modern architectural marvel completed in 2022, the White & Timber House features a segmented floor plan centered around an internal courtyard, offering stunning South Coast views and a harmonious blend of sustainable materials.
Words by Jon Kibbin - Kibbin Design
With access to iconic South Coast views over 7 Mile Beach and Cullunghutti in the background, White and Timber House responds to site with a segmented floor plan set around an internal courtyard. Besides providing a sheltered outdoor area from harsh onshore weather, the courtyard acts as a light-well to the spaces located to the rear of the house and allows natural heating and cooling throughout.
Inspired by the location, the repeating wave-esque roofline is evident from all angles. We chose to incorporate sustainable shiplap timber cladding, to soften and contrast with the concrete and brick structure and as materials that could withstand the harsh conditions that batter the site form the south. The textural material pallet increase the dynamic play of light and shadow which falls over the house each day.
Exterior timber batten details are carried through to the interior of the home, evident around the central void area and open riser stair detailing.
