Merimbula House

Completed in 1997, this house located in Merimbula, Australia is a vacational place built for a

family of four people. Is constructed almost entirely of reclaimed timbers and glass for the

doors and windows. The post and lintels were salvaged from a demolished bridge in

Gippsland, Victoria. Its structure is based on a series of intertwined columns and beams

forming a reticulate shape. The house has two levels, in the ground floor is the main corridor

leading to the rooms and the pool until reach the living room, the kitchen and the main balcony.

Behind the kitchen are the stairs leading to the second floor where is located the main room.

The doors and windows are panels that allows the incoming sunlight and a wide view of the

landscape, creating an interaction between interior and exterior spaces, wich in combination

with the soothing sounds produced by the water of the fountain in the pool, creates an

harmonious environment for its guests. That’s why the Merimbula House is the perfect place

for vacation.
