Harbour House
2006 Gadi Country / Vaucluse, NSW
Designed for a growing young family on a west-facing site overlooking Sydney harbour, this house is a direct expression of our client’s clear vision. They wanted to maximise winter solar gain and the expansive views of the harbour, in the context of the close proximity of neighbouring houses.
A central staircase, with a north-facing pop-up roof over, brings sunlight to the centre of the house. Living areas, centred on the kitchen, access both the terrace overlooking the harbour and rear garden pool.
