A single-storey split level rear extension to a semi-detached bungalow on a narrow site invites you in to meander down through its gentle level changes.

Low-slung and sprawling on top of the knoll of the hill, capturing 360-degree views of the Noosa hinterland from sunrise to sunset. With understated styling and visually simple detailing the vista can be appreciated and not detracted from. Design cues were taken from houses you would experience in Wanaka New Zealand.
