The leafy suburb of Bateau Bay is home to this unique residence. The Tank House fits its environment beautifully with the wonderful use of composite materials.
This spectacular acreage came with many limitations, including the fact that the property is off the grid, resulting in a home that is completely self-sufficient with solar power.
Our clients wanted a home like no other. This home has been designed and built to make its low environmental impact as important as its creativity and quality of construction.
This small site dominated the hillside both from the street and the beach. Our challenge was to create a home that looked like it belonged without overpowering the streetscape.
Wanting to keep the feel of a lightweight, modern beach home we combined composite materials and corrugated steel with hardwood decking and the use of glass.
