Bicton Residence designed by Hillam Architects, located atop Bicton’s Blackwall Reach in Australia. This home creates the seamless connection with the Swan River, reflects its river’s edge environment and the ‘enhanced living’ aspirations of its owners. Indeed, the architectural challenges of cutting into the hillside and maximising views were critical to the success of this project. As a result, the house offers a very spectacular views to the river and the high end amenities for the living moments.

Also, the main entry of this house is designed to impress. It’s a glazed void features a beautifully detailed, spiral staircase which leads to the upper, cantilevered living-areas. The two bedroom suites are deliberately set on split levels to provide privacy and tranquility whilst still allowing spectacular views. A large outdoor deck leads to a stunning 10m infinity pool which appears to blend seamlessly with the blue waters of the Swan River. In addition to this, the design palette is comfortable yet contemporary and the workmanship and finishes throughout are to an exceptionally high standard. In keeping with the design principles, the home features many sustainable initiatives. Indeed, the house has taken full advantage of its prime location, to bring out the best for its owner.

Indeed, a rusticated limestone base, along with the extensive use of natural timber and stone, give the impression of the house rising from the surrounding escarpment. In addition to this, softer finishes at ground level give way to more refined details through the upper levels creating an interesting contrast.
