EXPLORING the Beauty of SUBTROPICAL ARCHITECTURE: A Tour of a Material rich and Tactile Home

#subtropical #architecture #homedesign
Cove House is a rich and tactile exploration into thresholds and edges. Thresholds between public and private space within the house are explored, along with a testing of the edge between the house and its external context. This edge was important due to the site being adjacent to an easement, allowing the opportunity to engage with the neighbourhood on three sides. It is common within Sanctuary Cove for planning restrictions to dictate the need to build to the boundary along such easements.
