Dray House

A lovely acreage property, with lots of space and plenty of choices of house location.  We worked with our clients to choose the best position, which was well back from the road, on a slight rise.  We successfully relocated the building envelope to this better location.

The layout is a classic, ‘pulled-apart’ house done as joined pavilions.  This produced great separation between living and beds, plus superb cross ventilation.

We used large overhangs and banks of louvres to allow the house to suit its sub-tropical environment.
