Shed House sets a new standard for flexible living in a suburban setting. This project skillfully combines the client's living and working spaces, striking a balance between the two while ensuring adaptability in each area. The ground floor features an open layout with minimal walls and structure. Spaces are arranged around a central courtyard, allowing for versatile configurations that can accommodate both business and leisure activities.

The upper floor houses the main living areas, with the kitchen, dining, and living rooms oriented towards the courtyard, while bedrooms are positioned at the corners. This inward-focused design ensures privacy and comfort within a typical suburban site.

In the context of rising material and labor costs, Shed House embraces standard construction methods and materials, featuring a corrugated steel facade that is both evocative and cost-effective. A covered verandah leads to a traditional front door, but the true connection to the street is created by large, retractable doors at the front and back of the building, enabling a permeable layout.
