BICHENO DWELLINGS
DATE: 2025 | LOCATION: Bischeno, TAS
Three two-bedroom dwellings on a north-sloping site, offering panoramic views over the town and the ocean beyond. Each home is thoughtfully designed to maximize both views and privacy through carefully staggered setbacks and varying floor heights.
​
The exterior palette was thoughtfully chosen to complement the natural surroundings, reflecting the tones of the exposed granite outcrops and the native bush backdrop.
​
The site is in a designated bushfire zone, requiring the installation of fire water tanks to comply with the BAL-19 rating and ensure fire safety measures are met. Robust, fire-resistant materials were incorporated to meet regulatory requirements while ensuring durability against the harsh coastal environment.
