The Boathouse celebrates the experience of living on the water’s edge, offering sanctuary and protection from the wild weather that blows in from the sea. In this edge condition, it 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.
Tours: Sunday 13 November, 10 am, 10.30 am, 11 am, 11.30 am, 12 pm, 12.30 pm and 1 pm

Accessibility: On street parking in nearby Paloona Street and walk to the house via Derwent Ave (135). The house is step free, however there is a moderately steep driveway access without handrail.
