A Family Home Rises From the Site of an Old Tennis Court in Australia
May 17, 2021 - Victoria
A contemporary home was built on a tennis court in Kyneton,a historic town in the Macedon Ranges region of Victoria, Australia.
The old tennis court offered an opportunity to build a modern home without the typical heritage constraints of the area. However, there were other location-specific challenges that emerged during the
construction.
The raw material palette of concrete blocks, black steel, natural timber, and burnished concrete generates a muted form that echoes the tones of the landscape. The 3,038-square-foot residence is also nestled into the verdant hillside, which offers additional visual protection from pedestrians.
