Enough is enough…..
Imagine you had a dream site with dream clients who probably had the finaces to do ‘a piece of architecture’
My clients, Simon and Sarah are probably at a stage in their lives, as I am, where they wonder about what is enough, what do they need, how can they experience a place….without destroying it.
This project was the test case for a bigger house that was deemed unnecessary…the team did too good a job!
The Bath Haus exemplifies architecture’s ability to deliver meaningful, site-responsive design through modesty and experimentation. Originally conceived as a small amenity block beside a rural shed, it evolved into a defining project element—balancing playful spirit with purposeful utility. Referencing caravan parks and the elemental qualities of bathing, its distinct bath, shower, and toilet pavilion engages in a dialogue between inside and out, crafted and raw. The Bath Haus embodies the principle that less can be more. It stands as a powerful prototype for simple, site-connected living.
I rang drew and said could you do me a shed conversion and then a big house later
He said yes but only if I can go mad on the dunny
I said yes
So here it is …. The mad haus
