Built on an infill landlocked site, the compact “T” shaped floor plan is designed around the concept of looking “inward” when looking outward.

The simple floor plan splits the site, creating a private courtyard to the north and garden area to the south, providing private green spaces for the living area to look outward upon.

The materiality of T-House takes inspiration from the iconic beach shacks in the area with a steel roof and white weatherboard walls above a brick base.

With the contemporary skillion roofline and crisp detail execution by the builder, the house has a premium feel and finish well beyond the actual build cost of the home.
