House A is a modern indoor-outdoor connection, designed by Walter&Walter in 2016. Located in a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, the home encompasses 2,583ft² (240m²).
The simple massing composed of simple materials focuses the viewer’s’ attention onto the relationship of the house to its environment. The house at specific points, opens up, to create moments of porosity for landscapes to inhabit. At each of these openings different landscape conditions can be found that are unique responses to the orientation of each courtyard embracing the specific qualities of light, air and the proportion of space. These landscapes have an influence on the adjacent interior space. Interior spaces expand or contract in dialogue with the landscape harmoniously with functional needs. The interior spaces are open, light filled and are detailed to limit distraction.
