Set atop a magnificent site on the Bellarine Peninsula, Contour House anchors itself into the landscape with a 6 meter high folding concrete wall. This gesture is both protective and revealing, simultaneously creating an internal courtyard whilst drawing the expansive views from Geelong to Port Phillip Heads into the home. The ideas explored in this project are about built occupation of the landscape and challenging the ways we live within it.
