Yarra House

A dramatic entry down the wide stairway between curved retaining walls flanked either side by sunken Japanese gardens is like entering the silence of a natural ravine. This entrance conceals the generous and light filled interior and hidden private garden and pool beyond. Natural materials and beautiful off form concrete are the material palette and create both expansive and intimate spaces for both family and entertaining. A beautiful project.
