The Bottle Tree House, a duplex set across 4 floors, positioned on a steep sandstone escarpment on the sunlit North Slope of the Cremorne hillside.
An existing dwelling to be demolished, a mature bottle tree to be saved, subtlety of form, placement and scale focused around the preservation and appreciation of the tree and the steepness of the land. Living spaces that step, interweave and explore the gradient, that unify with the flora to breathe harmoniously within its natural restraints.
Respectful of neighbouring spatial quality, The Bottle Tree House accentuates the horizontal to calm scale within its environment.
