Description

Centred around an existing tree, Jacaranda House offers a robust family home in Erindale where the layering of space, texture, and light nurture interaction between nature and each other.
The clients sought a low maintenance home designed for entertaining, with abundant access to functional outdoor areas to facilitate an active lifestyle.
Like a Roman village, it is formed from a series of masonry volumes that radiate around an existing jacaranda tree. The variation in floor levels and ceiling heights, along with the carefully considered placement of courtyards, voids, openings and skylights create a dynamic series of interconnected spaces.
Bespoke detailing coupled with a disciplined palette of honest and durable materiality, rich in texture are integral to the personality of the home. An appreciation and manipulation of light allows a daily performance of dancing light across the architecture, showcasing the textural and tonal variances of the materials, enriching the spatial experience.
