Jackson House

Location: Bermagui, New South Wales, Australia

House area: 3,983 square feet/370 square metres

Description: This house is a collection of rooms held together by a large, high wall, which folds around the contoured hilltop to create the interior-an open courtyard edged by a large veranda. The rooms are connected only by the exterior, providing a cellular monastic separation. The elevation is a consistently structured section, the skillion reflecting the land contours.
