Architect: Tanner Architects
Placed carefully within the parameters of an existing approved building envelope, the Flowerpot house presents living spaces to the forested waterfront escapement. A purposeful wall to the west protects privacy & sight lines from the road above the site, while also providing a sequence of entry. The demarcation curates afternoon light through the home’s interior. Opening to the north, social spaces flood with sunlight while sleeping spaces and a small working studio tuck more privately to the south. This is a simple home for rural living that is mindful of its scale within the broader context.
Tours: Sunday 9 November, 1pm & 2.30pm (bookings required)

![Open House Hobart and the Emerging Architects and Graduates Network (EmAGN) Tasmania @emagn_tas would like to thank everyone who kindly bid in this year's annual Sheltered [Ground] Silent Auction.
We watched the last-minute bidding war on some items (looking at your chair, @other_furniture_) with absolute glee; because, together, you helped raise over $8000 for the Hobart Women's Shelter @hobartwomensshelter. Legends. THANK YOU!!
If you missed out on an item, but you'd still like to support HWS, please head to the link in bio to make a donation. Your financial help plays a critical role in supporting service delivery and therapeutic programs, and fund strategic projects such as building long-term homes. Such programs provide opportunities for women and children to lead independent and fulfilling lives.
Finally, congratulations to those who outbid everyone else – enjoy your beautiful pieces, knowing there's a string of jealous individuals who missed out. Don't worry! We'll do it all again next year.
