Located on a spectacular riverside site with envious views of Mosman Bay and the greater Swan River, this residence in the prestigious suburb of Mosman Park has been designed to cater for the ultimate modern family lifestyle, with a focus on outdoor living and entertaining whilst maintaining privacy and separation from the adjacent public zones.
The design achieves river views from all bedrooms, including those to the rear of the site, without compromising on privacy by elevating the ground floor slightly above street level, allowing views across to Bay View Park. The house design responds to the natural contours and established levels of the site, with a concealed basement garage designed to accommodate our client's collection of vehicles below the main living areas.
The building form and style combine to create a contemporary and timeless appeal, incorporating a distinctive cubic form that hovers above a more lightweight structure to the ground floor, with a free-form sculptural column creating visual interest as well as structural function. Quality and low-maintenance materials are proposed, including textured acrylic render, linear profiled board cladding and areas of feature metal cladding which will combine with the high-spec glazing to create a simple but durable palette. The building has been designed in accordance with passive solar design principles that maximize natural lighting and cross ventilation whilst protecting the interior from the harsh western sun with large overhangs and carefully positioned walls and screens.
