The Wensley by Byrne Architects

The Wensley is a remote rural property off the Surf Coast of Victoria. This building is the first stage in realizing the dream of its owners to create a serene retreat for their family, complete with vineyard’s, orchard and a collection of swimming holes. The interiors are rich and textured. Walls, floors and ceilings are all build from timber of varying species and profile, varying levels of saw-cut. The atmosphere inside is warm and light, recognizable as a country home, yet with a strong sense that it is a piece of modern design embedded in the landscape.
