South Hobart Houses

Overview
This project required the design of a low-cost duplex of 3 bedroom houses for 2 families, on a highly constricted and steep bush block within one of Hobart’s suburban valleys. Unadorned rationalism, economical inventiveness and structural hi-performance define the architecture as the two light filled houses elegantly cling to the hillside.
