        That would work!!! Certainly sound like the perfect spot for it.

        These are of growing use for exactly that, the extended family. As you'd well know rents in Sydney are ballistic! The rent we pay each week ourselves for a tiny two bed place on the lower north shore could drag the economy out of debt!

              Thanks Guys, You could be right about the guy for the job at hand, we've found a rare match of minds, all driven by the same style and thoughts on housing.

                It's when you do great work that a client gives you free reign. Excellent job, Richard!

                Is this the project you were thinking about 3D printing a model of?

                      Curious about the walls on the physical models that stick up above the black roof material (or just flush?). Does this represent a sort of parapet and what is the purpose, other than looking interesting? I don't see it in the renderings.

                      Did you glue-up the models for the exhibit (instead of hair clips)?

                      Oh, and I assume the roofing will be light colored in the end--"cool roofs" etc.

                            Thanks mate, this is one of the jobs mate - though the exhibition turned out to be a little sooner than the client had originally suggested.

                            I'm trying to talk them into have a model of each style done for the show home. Just got to see how that pans out. Problem with start-ups, so much money has to go in so many directions even before the first home is sold! 😞

                                Mate they are indeed parapets. They are on the render on the front side of the flyer I later posted. This home isn't in our range yet, it's a bit of a special to which we are still in the process of nailing all the details.

                                They are there for reason besides aiming to be a feature, we are constructing with a panel system and in this case the whole home is designed around standard panel heights so there are limited cut panels and minimal waste.

                                And yes the roofing will be white, Western Australia has a fairly warm climate, bloody hot in fact!

                                In the end I pinned the models together. Came out fairly cool.

                                    Thanks mate, pretty happy with the overall result. Now I've just got to plan to get over to the other side of the country, meet these clients and share a beer! And check out for myself the state I'm designing homes for!

                                            Great stuff, Richard. Love the design. Reminds me of Neutra, Breuer, Ellwood et al. The exterior renders, while beautiful, look a little too gloomy for me, though. There's a certain nuclear test site feel to them.
