Principal Design Features

Passive solar design principals were employed to exclude summer sun & allow winter sun to enter deep within the lower floor plate / Warmth of direct sun is stored within the thermal mass of the west side wall that conditions the inside air temperature in winter /  Wide span glass doors meet the demands of contemporary Australian lifestyle by providing greater inter-functional connection between inside & out.

Bifold doors allow opening to the side breezway & to the rear.
