This environmentally sustainable home was built to the highest possible standard on a five-acre property situated in Coledale, south of Sydney in NSW.
The clients were passionate about preserving the lush rainforest to the east and the towering escarpment to the west that encapsulate and dominate the visual landscape of their home.
The challenge was to create a beautifully detailed interior, that was sustainable, child friendly, colourfully playful yet respectful to the overwhelming beauty of the natural landscape. The interior follows through the total ‘green’ philosophy – reflecting the semi-rural nature of the property plus the needs and personalities of this young free-spirited family.
