A new two-storey house was proposed in Penguin, which a small coastal town on the north coast of Tasmania. The site has a unique setting with ocean views towards the north and rolling hills to the south.
The proposed layout runs along a north-south axis, so the main side wall was rotated out 20 degrees to compensate for the slightly angular site, to focus views out towards the ocean from main living areas. A double garage and main entry are nestled behind the proposed feature stone wall, which acts as a protective barrier from harsh afternoon sun and westerly winds. The first floor contains kitchen and dining areas that take advantage of 360 degree views; a large terrace was located strategically over the garage to capture the same views. A raked skilion roof caps the house and continues the angled/ triangular theme.
The project was novated to the Builder which resulted in compromised design modifications, but the overall form and concept was maintained.
Outcome: “We were thrilled and completely impressed with the unique and functional design SG2 design came up with.”
