M House, Fusion of Brazilian Modernism and Natural by Rama Architects

Architecture Design of M House

Description About The Project

M House designed by Rama Architects, located on the leafy shoreline of Clareville Beach, this new residential dwelling recedes behind a green canopy cascading from the rooftop down and growing up from below, blurring the lines between outside and in. Also, hints of Brazilian Modernism are seen in the concrete form with deep drawn-out eaves, voids, and openness.

On the other hand, the underlying principal of M House was to create a restful and private family home that receded into the landscape using immersive planting from the rooftop cascading down, visible from every room, and planting from the ground up. Besides, encouraging nature to envelop the structure, blurring lines between outside and in, allows the home to disappear behind the greenery, provide privacy and tranquillity.

The feeling of being outside yet still being sheltered by a formative structure was key. This is where we played with the idea of hard and soft. Hard represented in the Brazilian modernist design with concrete, stone, and tallowwood. Hence, the result is a solid structure with large eaves, create a safe receding shelter.

The Architecture Design Project Information:

• Project Name: M House
• Location: Clareville, Australia
• Project Year: 2023
• Designed by: Rama Architects

Indeed, light, voids, landscape, and glass exemplify the softness. The soft makes the strong shelter one with the trees, plants, and water surrounding the home.

Also, by fostering an embrace of nature around the edifice, erasing the distinction between the exterior and interior, the dwelling seamlessly melds with the surrounding greenery, creating a sense of seclusion and serenity.
