Balwyn North House

Melbourne, Victoria

A001902

Across three distinct pavilions, Balwyn North House defines a large family home conceived to foster enduring living patterns with spatial arrangements designed to holistically foster daily rituals.

Unfolding across a program that provides a framework for contemporary living patterns the layout begins with the moment of arrival, navigates through a zone that cultivates togetherness and finally culminates in a pavilion devoted to quietude and rest.

Balancing formal and informal atmospheres, multiple living spaces lend themselves to the rituals of hospitality while courtyards extend interior space, activate landscaping and allow for cross-ventilation.

Interiors intentionally reference nature through framed views onto the surrounding garden and the curation of tactile, natural materials. The earthy expression and palette instill a sensorial refinement while simultaneously tempering the geometric precision of the architecture.
