Collector House | Open Principle Architects

Collector House is designed as a 4 bedroom family home using Open Principle Architects’ philosophy of ‘low consumption housing’. The house wraps the existing significant vegetation in plan, whilst using the natural gradient in section to elevate the primary private living function, optimising views and natural northern light gain. Water tanks that service the project are concealed under the elevated rear section of the house leaving the remaining block for land and playscaping. Construction utilises highly insulated wall, floor and roof systems. Air tightness is achieved through internal vapour barrier and fresh air provided by ERV systems.

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.
