Patel Residence

A key part of the design was creating a compact and efficient layout for the small site. This was achieved by creating a central axis running south/north containing the two storey entry, floating stair and access routes on both levels. Radiating out from either side of the central axis are the living spaces, kitchen and dining on the lower level and bedrooms/bathrooms on the upper level. On the upper level two distinct cedar clad box forms run either side of this central axis. Photography by Mark Scowen
