Kirribilli
This impressive three-storey home in Kirribilli cleverly takes advantage of a steeply sloping site and absolute waterfront position.
This home is designed to embrace its sweeping waterfront outlook, using form and materiality to draw the eye outward.
A series of rammed earth blades rising up to 6.5m high form the external elevations of the house and double as feature walls of the interior, where the earthy red tones marry with recycled red ironbark timber flooring to create a natural and warm ambience throughout the residence.
The structure is completed with a unique curved metal roof and expansive floor-to-ceiling single-pane glass windows which bathe the interior in natural light whilst capitalising on the home’s impressive water views.
Privacy and functionality also feature prominently in the home’s design and construction. A central courtyard offers a comfortable and private external space, and a series of motorised retractable venetians provide shading and privacy for the home’s interiors. Extensive use of joinery creates functional storage space, and an internal passenger lift enables free and easy access between the three levels.
