Nestled into the gentle incline of a sloping site, this contemporary dwelling has been oriented so that its occupants can take full advantage of attractive vistas across the garden. Thanks to the building’s bold, angular structure and the array of crisp, modern finishes that have been employed, the overall effect is of a striking sculptural form rising up from the landscape.
The internal layout of the house also responds to the unique topography of the site, and the owners are able to make the most of the pleasant views thanks to a clever upside-down living arrangement. The designers at David James Architects also incorporated large swathes of floor-to-ceiling glazing to ensure the interiors are bathed in natural light throughout the day.
