Cube

A formal simplicity that appeals to the emotions and in which a great
complexity of details is hidden.
In Progress. Under construction.
 
Cube House is a single-family residence located in Brighton East on a 605 m2 park side lot in the middle of
Glencairn Street. The house enjoys stunning views of the park below. A series of interconnected volumes
and planes form the seamless indoor/outdoor living spaces that define the residence.
From the exterior, the house appears as a cluster of overlapping concrete blocks that can be differentiated
by their varied finishes.
The master suite cantilevering over the park side, extending the view of the park as much as possible. Tall
ceilings enclose the kitchen, dining and living room which open onto an outdoor garden and infinity
spa/pool. A large interior courtyard and round stair connects the main living level, bringing lots of natural
light to the lower level.
Even the austere facade at night floats in the warm glow provided by concealed up-lighting and ensures
the warm welcoming into the property.
 
A warm minimal material palette combined with precise detailing create a luxurious and refined modern
concrete home that takes full advantage of the indoor/outdoor living that Melbourne provides.
