DESIGN OVERVIEW
North-West Sydney, NSW
Two family homes organised around deep garden outlooks, generous openings and protected outdoor rooms.
The Site
A landscape-led concept that treats each private garden as a primary room and places everyday living directly beside it.
Living spaces and upper retreats look through layered planting rather than toward adjoining windows.
Large protected openings connect kitchen and dining areas to an alfresco edge and lawn.
A flexible bedroom and nearby bathroom support guests, study or multigenerational living.
Bedrooms use fins, planting and offset windows to retain daylight with controlled privacy.
The Two Homes
Both homes share a garden-focused strategy while using different retreat and guest-room arrangements.
Design Response for Home 1A
The entry reveals a planted outlook beside the stair before opening into a broad kitchen and living room connected to the rear garden.
Design Response for Home 1B
A recessed alfresco and protected side planting create a quieter outdoor edge, with a flexible room positioned near the entry.
Trees, lawn and planted edges define useful outdoor rooms rather than decorative leftover areas.
Ground-floor guest spaces and upper retreats allow each home to adapt over time.
Open stairs and broad rear glazing help daylight reach the centre of both plans.
Offset upper openings and layered planting reduce direct overlooking across boundaries.
