Home of the Year

This home stands as a testament to modernist marvels, capturing the essence of 21st-century architectural innovation.

Its distinctive curved cedar battens, gracefully rising above the glass lower floor, pay homage to the city's rich mid-century design heritage, earning it a place among Canberra's most iconic residences. 

Crafted across three floors, the home seamlessly blends concrete, timber, and steel construction with innovative curved surfaces and recycled materials, resulting in a design that is both visually captivating and functionally efficient.

Inside, the home offers a spacious open-plan layout, bespoke joinery, and breathtaking vistas of the courtyard, pool, and garden from its central room. Despite its futuristic aesthetic, the home remains firmly rooted in tradition, embodying timeless design principles that continue to inspire. Judges commended the sophisticated design, noting the seamless integration of natural light and nature, along with the impeccable craftsmanship evident throughout the residence.
