Description
Hear from architects and their clients on creating homes that reflect the way we live today.
EHDO Architecture co-director Dimitri Kapetas designed Silver Street House in close collaboration with owner/builder Pat Gaffney. Together they will share the story behind the new family home, which has emerged on one of Fremantle’s intricate streets. Two trapezoidal forms straddle an easement, fragmenting space, opening the volumes to the environment advantageously. Materials were selected for their lack of pretension and ability to age and weather. Loosely arranged rooms provide places for connection or solitude.
Polly Harbison, principal of Polly Harbison Design, will share the story of Macmasters Beach House, along with her client Anna Joyce. Replacing a 1940s weatherboard cottage in a secluded pocket on the New South Wales Central Coast, the pragmatic new home responds sensitively to its environment while resisting the temptation to hide.
