Modern, flexible, sociable
The mountain spa town of Hanmer Springs is a year-round destination for recreation and relaxation.
Considerations:
Our clients had a modest budget but wanted to make the most of the opportunity for a sociable, versatile, holiday home.
Our solution:
The result is this modern design that reflects the surrounding mountains yet has outstanding flexibility and functionality. It is a three bedoom, two living space home, with flexible multi-use spaces. The covered porch creates a fantastic open entertaining space that is sheltered in all seasons and connected to both the living room and rumpus room. There is space to remove and store boots and jackets when outdoor adventures are over for the day.
Differing roof pitches create a dynamic sense of space and openness internally, and are expressed externally with light cedar battens to the living block and dark painted panels to the bedroom block.
