Located south of Sydney on the foreshore of Kyle Bay this project faces challenges of a steep sloping sight and south facing aspects that overlook the Georges river.

Focusing on minimal raw materials, the house will encompass a sleek and staggered form. Each level slightly overhanging the next to exaggerate the steep slope of the site as it falls away from underneath the heavily expressed concrete slabs. This stepping allows northern light to permeate down into all areas of the house, without obstructing the view out to the river.

Hard stones and concrete are paralleled with light timber screens and full height glass sections in order to create a feeling of lightness as the structure pushes itself out from the sloping terrain.

With a large 4 car garage, open living plan, terrace and cantilevered pool, this home has been designed to meet the needs of our clients contemporary lifestyle.

An exciting feature of the house is the boat shed designed to accommodate a large 40 foot yacht with direct access back up to the house.  the boat shed utilises the same material and formal quality of the house creating a seamless transition across the whole site.
