2015 Southern Architecture Awards Winner
Kelvin Heights House
This is a large lakeside home whose scale has been cleverly articulated by mixing open living and circulation spaces with staggered intimate cedar pavilions. The pulling apart of components has maximised light, privacy and the sense of open space with each room having its own relationship to a secluded courtyard. Internal spaces are intentionally blinkered to the neighbours, while view shafts through internal and external spaces allow visual connection to the lake. Well-detailed robust materials connect the interior and exterior spaces, while the circulation spine binds the whole and creates spaces to pause and occupy between the pavilions.
