Hillside Home Goes Wild in Tazmania

This unusual house plan by Australian architects Room11 is located on a hillside in Allens Rivulet, Tasmania, Australia. It’s a two-faced design really, intriguing passersby with its contemporary, angular exterior and inviting them in with its warm, welcoming, interior. The stilted, slope house plan incorporates a variety of outdoor entertainment areas that offer a direct connect to nature while protecting residents from the oft-harsh Tasmanian landscape and climate. A steel-clad facade creates a low-maintenance exterior and a look that blends into the surrounding landscape. Visible from the outside, a range of fully-and semi-enclosed, exposed and sheltered outdoor living rooms make this the ultimate home of all-weather living, affording you the experience of “four seasons in one day.” The glass-enclosed structure puts the kitchen at its heart, with the remaining rooms and views unfolding around it. A timber interior brings warmth and a rustic aesthetic to the contemporary home. Room11
