Design duo Henry Bennett and Dan Wilson work together to create the Cooroy House. It is an off-grid design located in the hills of Cooroy in the Noosa hinterland area of Queensland, Australia. The home is designed for a semi-retired couple who commissioned the duo to create a sustainable home that would be powered by solar energy.
They wanted a design that respects the site’s gardens, which they had spent years caring for. Bennett explains the design space, “This outdoor space acts as the main circulation route, providing its occupants with a constant connection to the landscape.” Wilson adds, “The building is shady in summer, sunny in winter, it opens right up to capture breezes and it offers many different spots to enjoy the landscape at different times of the year.”
