The Gunyulgup House Design sits on a secluded bush site with stands of banskia, jarrah, marri and peppermint trees.
The Gunyulgup House Design consists of durable low maintenance external materials that provide BAL 19 construction standard for the remote Gunyulgup bush site. The site is situated an equidistant drive from the long left-handers of Yallingup and barrelling right-handers at Injidup. The perched platform of the Gunyulgup House Design offers a respite for a busy professional couple desiring a weekend retreat to escape the rigors of their professional practice based in Perth.
The Gunyulgup House Design provides the clients with an elevated living platform perched off the bush block to enjoy the dappled light of the summer sunsets through the bush canopy, and a warm respite during winter weekenders – all on a tight building budget. The skillion roof provides calculated eaves overhang, and adjustable green tinted fenestration encapsulates the living area for south-west summer sun protection, while permitting passive solar heating to be maximized during winter. After camping on the bush block for over twenty years; the Gunyulgup House Design now offers the couple the same enjoyment of Western Australian indoor-outdoor living on the bush site, but in the comfort of passive solar house.
