Designed by Andrew Walter in Australia, this house is composed of a field of rooms that open up and close down in response to the surrounding landscape. A simple massing focuses the viewers’ attention on the relationship between the house and its environment, providing a compelling street presence. The selective openings of the house create moments of porosity for landscapes to inhabit. These different landscape conditions are responses to the orientation of the space embracing the specific qualities of light, air and space.


A rough sawn timber used for the exterior reveals a native material quality often erased during manufacturing. This rough and protective boundary embraces the natural variation of the material. Moving through the house, the material texture changes and volumes open up and collide with landscaped spaces that punctuate the plan. Opacity makes way for transparency, privacy for openness and inclusion.
