Blok Stafford Heights is a simple, low-cost house on a sloping suburban site. The house was designed as a modular buildingand has been paired with site-built landscape structures that modify ground plane and encourage occupation of the garden.
Blok Stafford Modular is a remarkable achievement in the design and construction of a simple, low-cost house that harmoniously integrates modular building techniques with thoughtful, site-specific considerations. This design approach not only reflects the regional climate and local timber building traditions but also responds to the constraints of a limited budget.
The project exemplifies excellence in residential new architecture through its commitment to cost-effective design solutions, efficient modular construction, and harmonious integration with the site. The resulting architectural composition is a testament to the innovative fusion of design principles and construction methodologies.
