Architecture Design of Wallaby Hill House

Description About The Project

Wallaby Hill House designed by Avver is an impressive project which recently been shortlisted for the 2022 Houses Awards, Category New House over 200m2. The original brief for the house was a holiday home. However, due to the global pandemic, the brief changed to a full-time residence. Also, a few minor changes to the service areas during construction have enabled the house to fulfill the slightly modified brief. From client feedback, the house has exceeded expectations for the liveability and flexibility of the space.

The house designed to be occupied comfortably and flexibly, responding to the environment beyond the windows. The climate in the Alpine Shire can be varied with hot summers, freezing winters, and often a large temperature change throughout the day. Care was taken to balance the thermal mass and glazing to ensure a comfortable temperature for the inhabitants with minimal additional heating and cooling. Facing due north, the overhang makes the most of the sun in winter to heat up the slab and provides much-needed shade in the summer.

Once insides, the interior such as living room, dining room, kitchen and bedroom designed to create elegant and cozy spaces. In addition to this, the indoor outdoor connection allow owners to get the nature views. Indeed, the views and the sense of calmness of this house makes it become an ideal space to live and enjoy the life.
