Northbridge House

A modern home requires an equal weight of inspiration as there is wood, glass and concrete. That’s exactly what architects from Johannsen & Associates designed for this cool and laid back home in Northbridge, Australia. The lavish and spacious five-bedroom house looks gorgeous on the inside with its modern furniture and amazing furnishings, but expect to be charmed by the unabated view of the city or the black and white exterior, too. Outside there’s a rainwater filled pool that is heated using solar energy and the tennis court in the lawn that gives this home an active appeal. Just beautiful!




With a protected central courtyard, shady terraces and a sunny pool loggia, the outdoor spaces open to different parts of the site and garden. Passive heating and cooling and natural ventilation help minimize use of A/C, and solar pool heating and 24,000L rainwater tanks have been integrated into this spacious family home for even more energy efficiency.




Thanks to my friend David B/@sogld for sending me a link to this fabulous house!
