In this house for a group of artists, Murcutt shows how living space is governed by an aesthetic necessity, where there is no place for nostalgia in the vernacular or any literal revival of local tradition. Instead, the layout of the house reflects a careful analysis of the place, taking into account the topography, climate, hydrography, and the availability of resources. Complete with photographs and ample process drawings and technical drawings, this book thoughtfully documents the research and construction of this project.
