HOUSE 13 _ Li Home

Designed for an owner who spends much of their time overseas, this three-levelled home is conceived as a personal sanctuary, one that offers immediate calm, privacy, and reconnection with nature upon arrival. Nestled within native bush, the home balances low-maintenance living with a deeply restorative spatial and environmental experience.
The architecture is deliberately restrained and timeless, favouring strong proportions, refined detailing, and materials that age gracefully with minimal upkeep. The building is composed as a series of calm, layered volumes embedded and floating over the landscape, allowing it to recede into the bush and feel protected rather than exposed.
When unoccupied, the home maintains a quiet, closed presence. When in use, it opens effortlessly to light, air, and the surrounding canopy - transforming from a secure base into a fully immersive off grid retreat.
