Cassimatis House

1997

(in assoc. with Barrett Architects)

A Castilian-like residence coiled onto the cliffs of Castle Hill in Townsville. The building plan generates a protected private courtyard, a “private realm” to balance the “public persona” presented to the city.

The house is conceived as a staircase climbing through five levels, culminating in the master bedroom suite overlooking Cleveland Bay and Magnetic Island.
