This house in Barwon Heads is bounded and raised off the ground due to a flooding overlay. It is divided into primary elements, each with its own spatial organization, and surrounded by a perimeter of columns. This separation of interaction across the site allows the family to expand and contract as their occupation of the house changes throughout the year.

The steel frame that elevates the house creates the boundaries for the arrangement of its components. Divided into zones of permanent and temporary use (long-term, short-term, and transition space), each element is organized by the rotation of the corridor, providing complementary opportunities for light and privacy. The front of the house contains a dining room, living room, kitchen, study, and a bedroom for the couple. The middle section houses a laundry room and a powder room. The back of the house contains two bedrooms with ensuites and a sitting room for guests. Skylights along the west and east walls, and obscured northern views, allow the occupants to capture morning and evening sun while still maintaining privacy from neighbouring properties.

The rotational layout of the corridor, in conjunction with screening and window placement, provides each area of the house with a distinct private outlook and a different part of the garden to interact with. Despite this separation, continuity of space is maintained through the individual spatial arrangements of each element - the rear of the kitchen is the living room, and the upper part of the living room is the study. The western deck, which is situated in the centre of the site for optimal midday and afternoon sun, serves as an extension of the kitchen. However, when the front doors are opened, the space expands all the way through the house and into the street. AB House is a residence that can be private but does not have to be.
