Lightweight Housing of the Year | WINNER

Set within a sloping bush block among the karri and marri, this home was designed to work with its site rather than against it. Full-height glazing and hi-lite windows bring natural light from the tree line into the main living areas, with the same detail carried through to the master bedroom and games room.

Raised on a post-and-beam structure that steps down the slope, the home is wrapped in a full-length deck with glass balustrading. A wood-fired pizza oven turns the deck into a gathering space, and the lightweight W-board exterior keeps the build light on its site.

This home is designed for a family who wanted their site to shape the design, with wide decks and glazed living spaces that bring the forest in from every angle.
