Western Ave, Pinewoods Holiday Camp

The job was to replace the aging asbestos-clad holiday bach with a clean-line pragmatic holiday home that had room for a workshop and garage beneath the upper level living space.

The result is a subtle update of the old lean-to from the top road to a striking and imposing bastion of solid timber and expansive views from the back-driveway entrance.

The client requested the floor to be recycled tongue & grooved boards, sanded and oiled to provide a natural finish, huge areas of glass to access the views, and compact spaces for the bedroom/bathroom.

The bach also has a modern twist with the installation of solar panels and Tesla storage battery in the basement making this a very resilient and energy efficient home.
