Bangalow Road House
Bangalow Road House overcomes the unique challenges of a 360 SQM corner block to fulfil the brief for a three-bedroom family home within just 140m2 of internal floor area. Privacy from the street is achieved through the use of screening mechanisms that shield dwellers from outside view whilst inviting an abundance of natural light into the home. Horizontal battens on the upper level provide outward views while effectively blocking street-level sight lines. This approach achieves a delicate balance between openness and privacy and mitigates solar radiation without relying on traditional eaves. The screen, owing to its scale and detailing, integrates with the architecture and serves as an outer skin, diffusing the solid upper-volume and producing a veil-like effect amidst the ever shifting dappled light.
