Winner
Room Without Roof, HYLA Architects

“Breathes new life into the traditional courtyard typology”

This two-storey brick structure has the archetypal form of a gable-roofed house with an unusual twist – part of the form is actually an external courtyard that contains the swimming pool. This ‘room without a roof’ becomes the central focus of the house and blurs the distinction between inside and outside. This project re-examines the relationship of a house with its external surroundings.

 

Honourable Mention
Artist Retreat at Pittugala, Palinda Kannangara Architects

“A magical place born of a singular vision and clever design”

Best of the Best
Winner

krakani-lumi, Taylor and Hinds Architects

Episodes within the post-colonial story of the Aboriginal Tasmanians are marked by tragedy and dispossession. The site of krakani-lumi holds a significant place in the fabric of this story. It is not a widely known story, and this project was to serve as the place for its telling. The architecture of the project had to carefully bear witness to and help facilitate this ‘speaking into being’. Through the revelation of the interior, a story of concealing and revealing is told, which belongs to the privileged cultural experience.
