Description:

Designed for a writer and her husband, the boathouse sits perched on the banks of the River Derwent in Southern Tasmania. It is a small (ancillary) dwelling, dovetailed into the lush garden of their midcentury Myrtle clad family home. It celebrates the experience of living on the waters edge, offering sanctuary and protection from the wild weather that blows in from the sea. In this edge condition the boathouse offers prospect and refuge while carefully orchestrating levels of privacy from the northern approach and public walkway to the south. Clearly visible from all sides the building was conceived as a sculpted object in the landscape; an envelope formed to create a sequence of crafted experiential moments, moulded to the specific contextual and climatic conditions of its place. Materials | Colorbond, spotted gum, tasoak. Builder | Langford Projects
