North House by mckimm is a contemporary family home, celebrating functionality and grandeur. Despite its large volume and size, North House is a sanctuary, filled with intimate detailing and soul.

Designed by Lorenzo Garizio, the site offers a sense of mystery, heightened by the immediate dramatic action of walking across a bridge to access the front door. Journeying over the courtyard below, there is a real sense of depth to the property; this is made more apparent as, in this moment, the eye has the opportunity to span across the length of the home. This feature gives the illusion of an ever-expanding site, made more tangible by the attachment of a second property at the rear of the site, which now hosts a tennis court.

The heavy-set materials used, specifically the coolness of concrete, set the home apart. The client was interested in incorporating arches into the property; mckimm integrated this feature with a twist, whether it be in the form of curves, circles, skylights or cut-outs. The modern interpretation of arches dominates the design in a way that complements the use of harder materials and ignites the space to become fluid and delicate.

Collaboration between mckimm and the clients saw a consolidation of ideas that developed into the functional flow of North House. The clients were involved in the design process – the result is a family home that works for day-to-day living.
