2022 Southern Architecture Awards Winner

Emerald Bluffs Guest House

A spectacular yet modest intervention on the landscape. The architect provided a plan with expert manipulation of small spaces, allowances for daylight, and a thoughtful use of materials. Heavy weight masonry walls and detailing anchor the form, and provide privacy from the main house, that then give way to a glass façade that opens up to the bush and blurs the lines of inside to outside. The project kindles a feeling of being on a retreat and then realising you can live this way all year around.
