In Australia, we've almost been conditioned to view apartments as something temporary until you can move out to the suburbs in your detached home on a quarter-acre block, most likely with your 2.3 children and dog. However, Aurburn Road is an apartment development designed by Aych Architects.

A client turned to our studio with a request for a minimalistic interior in calm warm colors. An important detail for the client was the lack of directional light in the apartment, so we designed niches with lighting around the perimeter of the entire apartment.

Nestled within a lakeside setting, Log Tavern Pond House draws inspiration from its mid-century neighbors—many of which reflect the Usonian principles pioneered by Frank Lloyd Wright. Echoing their long, low proportions, natural materials, and luminous interiors, the design establishes a strong dialogue with its architectural context.
