Richard Kerr Architecture

This family home in suburban Melbourne has cascading forms and a timber batten entry on industrial rollers, inspired by Japanese screens.

This screen gives the owners the control to regulate the entry semi-public and semi-private domains.

The very introspective architectural form provides abundant natural light without compromising privacy.

Environmentally the house is supported by intelligent orientation, 10,000 litre water tanks, double glazing, double insulation, as well as external aluminium louvres for superior sun control!
