ISLAND HOUSE

Status: Complete

Project Architect: Sacha Zehnder, Jaya Param

Builder: Jaya Param

Images: Michael Nicholson

A pre-fabricated build amongst the eucalyptus trees on an island in the northern beaches of Sydney. A southern spine contains a structure of small modules housing the service and functional spaces of the house. Stepped down to the north living areas combine fluidly with deck spaces that connect back to landscape terraces much like wharf structures connect to the land. This supports a living pattern that is open and free.
