Warburton
Situated on the side of a hill, the featured home by NPR
Building Concepts feature a unique design that blends in well
with the surrounding landscape. A combination of different exterior
textures give the home an earthy, natural and warm look from
the outside.
The owner-designed home incorporates a curved roof, a range of
rich colours and textures, and boasts a fantastic outlook. The
position of the property in the hill had to be taken into
consideration, as did potential height issues.
With open-plan living, the home is aesthetically appealing and
welcoming, and provides spectacular views from the large
windows in the lounge and throughout the house. The balcony is
roomy enough for a table and chairs and is the perfect spot to
watch the sunset in the warmer months.
Using foam insulation and doubled glazed windows in the design
means the house has a very high energy rating. Down lights and
wall lighting have been installed throughout the home. A variety
of products in different textures and materials has also been
used. Aluminium windows, foam walls and metal fascia have been
incorporated into the design.
Additionally, steel and timber have been utilised in various
ways, and red mahogany floors have been included.
