Glenburn House

Glenburn, Australia

YEAR
2007
Glenburn is approximately 1.5 hours drive north
east of Melbourne in the rolling foothills of the Yarra Valley. The site is
20ha of re-invigorated farmland with a national forest abutting the north
boundary. The house is located at the top of a hill and enjoys panoramic views
of quintessentially Australian landscape. It is partially embedded into the
hilltop as a means of protecting the occupants from the prevailing weather and
buffering the west side of the building from extreme heat in summer. Our
clients are committed to environmentally sustainable design and the building
skin which is an identifiable part of our work includes solar collectors for
power and hot water. Other elements such as double glazing, rainwater
harvesting and digital power management make this apparently simple house a
sophisticated device for passive environmental management. The plan extends our
research into the notion of ‘abstract verandah’ to include a barcode motif in
the plan. A series of discrete spaces, organised in a way to suit the client’s
particular requirements, results in a coded arrangement that is unique to them
– a tectonic thumbprint for living.
