Wickham House by @modo_arch ⠀
Strathmore, VIC⠀

From the Architect: The steel stair punctuates the centre of these spaces to formally separate the living and the kitchen, the steel blades of the balustrade acts as both fall protection and a spatial screening device. Like the others, the living is distinguish by a change in volume, the raked ceiling allows the room to feel generous, while at the same time bringing in additional northern light into the room. It was also important for us that all rooms shared commonalities and felt unified, so our use of block wall and timber cladding was key to holding them together. Beside being a common material, they also help convey some important concepts and functions. The concrete block wall allowed the design to build a surrounding layer of thermal mass to help passively cool and warm the house.⠀
