Greybox is an experiment. Set in a seaside suburban setting, Greybox takes the idea of a verandah homestread turned inside out, cross bred with a beachside motel, a tractor shed and a cloistered abbey.
It’s a house for living outside – as much possible – with a series of separate rooms around a 3-sided veradah wrapping a courtyard. It’s intrinsically connected to it’s environment – a courtyard house for an urban site, one that maximises landscape and connections with climate and country.
It’s our house. Or our experiment/ holiday house. We dont get there much, but when we do we love it. We love that lots of people get to share it. We love the opportunity to live a little differently when we are there.

We express our gratitude to their Elders and Knowledge Holders whose wisdom, actions and knowledge have kept culture alive.
We recognise First Nations peoples as the first architects and builders. We appreciate their continuing work on Country from pre-invasion times to contemporary First Nations architects, and respect their rights to continue to care for Country.
