House on Hill / Green Studio

At the beginning of the Great Alpine Road in rolling foothills and eucalyptus forest, the client wanted a small temporary dwelling to highlight the natural features of the landscape and to eventually leave the site free without any residual impact of settlement. The forested landscape home to a thriving ecosystem, also has an uncanny collection of lone chimneys, their dwellings have disappeared without a trace by way of wildfire or economic shifts in time, this landscape understands the concept of impermanence.
