Description

Northcote House is a project steeped in both sustainability and innovation. Most materials for the 80-square-metre house were sourced from manufacturers within a five-kilometre radius of the site, while all the interior joinery, kitchen and textured finishes were crafted using advanced manufacturing techniques, such as computer numerical controlled (CNC) milling and robotic technology.

    DescriptionNorthcote House re-conceptualises the Victorian terrace typology in response to the existing urban context. The 80-square-metre house utilises advanced robotic technology to create a highly textured interior, playing with light and darkness over a vertical central void. Bespoke interior concrete textures serve acoustic and thermal performance to create comfort.

    DescriptionJury comment
    This project stood out for the jury as it rigorously challenged each member’s way of thinking about residential interiors. Northcote House’s innovation and sustainability agenda, with every component of the home manufactured within five kilometres of the site, gave it an edge, making the project a very deserving recipient of the Premier Award. It is technically very impressive and boasts a seamless integration of interiors and architecture, which is also to be highly commended. The project’s innovative building technologies and processes have driven a unique outcome and as a champion of small footprint living, the house’s intimate spaces spark joy.
