The site in South Fremantle has a beautiful uninterrupted north westerly view across parkland to the beach. The client wanted a passive solar Fremantle style house with a retreat on the upper floor where he would spend most of his time while downstairs is mainly for guests. One enters the centre of the house on the south and the upstairs and downstairs living spaces open out to the north west onto balconies and terraces. The main features of the house are the double height solar pergola and the circular stone tower on the street frontage. These circular forms are repeated internally throughout the building.
