CASE STUDY
The internal palette is minimal with white marble flooring, wood furniture, and subdued accents throughout.
The house is designed to be energy efficient, with no air conditioning required throughout most of the year. There is ample natural light in each part, as well as water recycling, rainwater harvesting, and the use of natural materials in the interior.
The Nine X Nine home is designed contextually to the site, retaining all of the existing trees and buildings between them. It is responsive to the climate by reducing heat gain due to its planning and orientation, creating spaces that merge with nature.
