Vesi were invited to prepare the concept design for a home on a large riverside site in Indooroopilly. The design responds specifically to the site and context, and is oriented for solar aspect and outlook. The existing substantial trees on the site are preserved in the design response. High level masonry screening filters light, including harsh morning light from the east, the masonry giving the home a sense of permanence. Natural stone and timber are also utilized to reflect the bush setting. The entry side of the home on the west is relatively closed, with the view towards the river opening up as one progresses through the house. Living areas are double height and connected on both sides to deck and terrace, and pool. Sightlines through and from the house are carefully considered.
