A new house in Killara for a young family of four. The design negotiates a sloping site and a large existing tree in the back yard. The entry foyer/stair circulation space splits the house into a low-slung single storey living pavilion and a two storey bedroom volume. An in-situ concrete seat encloses a small courtyard off the living room and doubles as a chalkboard for the children.
