Hedger Constructions Project 21

ONE WITH NATURE

This mid-century modern inspired home has been masterfully designed by Dion Keech Architects and expertly crafted by Hedger Constructions. Sited upon the crest of a hill, it consists of two distinct wings which are subtly angled around a courtyard, forming the central focus of the dwelling, and creating a dramatic entry. The clients required a timeless design with connection to the surrounding landscape, which has been skilfully achieved via an earthy palette of natural materials,
including native Australian timber, stone, copper and polished concrete.

Internally, the vision of Dion Keech Architects and artisan craftmanship of Hedger Constructions is on full display. Dion Keech Architects designed the living space as the breathtaking focal point, with hardwood ceilings which flow throughout the central open-plan area, counterbalanced by the light grey Geostone floors. Skilfully executed by Hedger Constructions, a hand-laid stone-clad fireplace is emphasised by the floor-to-ceiling windows, juxtaposing the timber within the home, and illuminating the architectural layout of the area. With a sunken lounge, the space not only encloses the warmth from the fireplace but creates a separation from the otherwise open-plan design.
