The quindalup house design maximises the passive solar design benefit and connects the indoor and outdoor living over the summer.
The quindalup house design is near the picturesque Quindalup beach and orientated to a sun drenched summer open indoor outdoor living space. The architectural design features raking ceilings and 2400mm/8′ high clear anodized end-sliding doors open to the open-plan living. The architectural layout maximizes the passive solar design benefit, and connect the spaces for indoor and outdoor living. The generous 2400mm/8′ high double glazed timber pivot doors frame the spacious open-plan living area for warm summer months.
The architect designed kitchen incorporates the latest porcelain panel selections and is the hub of the architectural design. The latest porcelain panel selections to the kitchen benchtops, select grade marri floor finish, Bosch appliances, Blum Adventos lift colour back glass overhead cupboards positioned above benchtop height slot window, are attributes of the quindalup house design. The quindalup house combines horizontal single lock standing seam Corten steel cladding juxtaposed against ‘Monument’ paint finish Scyon Axon vertically grooved cladding. The owners enjoy solar hot water with wood fuel boosting courtesy of a Chazelle Chiminee wood fuel firebox and the house design also incorporates a patented prefab footing system for budgetary purposes.
The significance on environmentally sustainable design and energy-efficiency, are all characteristic of the quindalup house design. The design incorporates well considered open plan living spaces to capture the winter heat gain. The calculated eaves depth allows winter sun ingress at lower azimuth, while eliminating the worst of the summer heat gain. The highlight windows maximize natural light and compliment the passive solar design by venting stale hot air via ‘stack effect’ ventilation.
The material palette also includes Arte Domus tiles throughout the wet areas with LED strip lighting, concealed cisterns and ceiling mounted rain showerheads.
