EARTH + SKY HOUSE

Earthy textures like rammed earth and spotted gum timber ground this home within a semi-bush context in Eltham.

A long rammed earth spine divides private and shared spaces within the home while providing thermal mass to maintain internal temperatures naturally. A slim skylight splices through the home, spilling light and late afternoon shadows across the striated surface.

The rear living areas gently perch atop the sloped site, overlooking the new inground pool and serene views to the undulating bush landscape beyond.

A single floor level is maintained throughout the home with wide doorways and low maintenance finishes to ensure this retirement home will be enjoyed for many years to come.
