Prospect House / Breathe Architecture
On a windy and exposed site, nestled behind a hill, sits a metal clad nugget; a home for a gold prospector and his family. Taking material and spatial cues from miner?s cottages and the country shed vernacular, this is a small house on a large rural block. Surrounded by pastoral rolling fields on the fringes of a state forest and proximate to a rich history of Victoria?s Gold Rush, the site is vast yet humble. The compact form was inspired by the client?s desire for retreat, and at under 100 square meters and for less than $260,000, was achieved for a similarly modest budget.
