Balmoral House

RESIDENTIAL

MOSMAN, NEW SOUTH WALES, AUSTRALIA

Overlooking Balmoral Beach, Sydney, this new home is built with highly textured concrete walls. inspired by the work of Artist Isamu Noguchi, the house is sculptural in nature with its projecting volumes shifting and kinking down the site to form a continuous loop. This unconventional approach goes against the grain of terraced hillside Sydney houses. The dynamic forms engage with the street and optimize the grand views to the water while maintaining a beautiful private landscaped courtyard in the heart of the site.

Design team:  Nicholas Byrne, Polly Harbision, Vince Myson, Ralph Rembel.  A collaboration with Clinton Murray Architects
