Faulkner Residence
(timber frame, face brick cladding, corrugated iron roof)
This one was for a tough client: my own family! Features include
cedar french doors, double-hung windows, brushbox timber flooring,
ornamental plasterwork, cypress pine frame, quad gutters and
decorative window hoods.

Hoskin Residence
(timber frame, face brick cladding, concrete tile roof) This
dwelling features Tasmanian oak floors and generous living
areas. This one was a freebie for a good friend.

Mangan Residence
(timber pole frame, mud brick walls, corrugated iron roof)
An interesting pole-house design built on a rural block. Extensive
use of recycled materials. The owner formed all the mud bricks
for the walls herself and the main poles were sourced from
used telephone poles. Equipped with self-composting toilet
facility. During the design I learnt more about composting
than I really wanted to!

Johnston Residence
(timber frame, face brick cladding, concrete tile roof) The
steeply sloping block of land resulted in the rear of the
dwelling being 2 and a half stories high. One of several I
designed for a rather charismatic property developer.

Taylor Residence
(timber frame, face brick cladding, concrete tile roof) Stock-standard
brick and tile dwelling. Memorable for its blandness. About
this time I realised that I didn't want to design houses like
this any more.

|
Russel Residence
(timber frame, face brick cladding, concrete tile roof) Large
dwelling built on narrow block of land achieving maximum legal
floor area for size of property. Is this a good thing?
|

|

|
Deagon Residence
(timber frame, face brick cladding, concrete tile roof) One
of the first houses I designed and proof that, even in the
1980s, some people were still building houses from the 1960s.
