HOUSE 08 _ Sliding Wall House

Perched on a hillside overlooking Cass Bay, this two-level home is designed to take full advantage of its sweeping bay views while maintaining a strong sense of privacy and repose. The architecture is intentionally simple and refined, allowing the natural materials - timber, steel, and concrete to define the home’s character and tactile presence.
The street-facing side presents a restrained, understated façade, while the rear opens to the landscape and view through expansive glazing and outdoor terraces, creating a seamless connection between interior and exterior. A large sliding privacy screen at the ground floor bedroom level provides shelter and discretion without compromising light or outlook.
Internally, the home emphasises clean lines, generous volumes, and a calm material palette, allowing the landscape and views to remain the focus. Exposed timber and steel elements provide warmth and structure, while concrete anchors the home visually to its hillside setting.
A simple, refined hilltop residence that balances openness and privacy, offering a serene retreat in dialogue with the natural beauty of Cass Bay.
