Sitting on the ridgeline of Blackall Range, Mapleton House is an intuitive response to the suburban-rural fringe condition. Its twin tapered forms frame distant mountain views from the street, while the multi-platform interior resonates with the terrain and the adjacent public stair, enhancing one’s experience of the surrounding landscape.

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.
