Kamburu House

Located in an urban area zoned for multi-unit buildings, Kamburu House is designed to fit its context and provide the family with privacy from neighbouring apartment blocks. Externally, the house’s rectilinear form and industrial materials fit its surroundings. While internally, the curves, colours and joinery bring softness and playfulness to living areas and bedrooms.

The house is a long tube-like form interspersed with voids and spaces to draw the landscape in. Clad with metal shingles pressed with a quilted pattern, it reflects and refracts the garden, as if almost making the building disappear. In contrast to the industrial exterior, the interior is domestic and eclectic with timber lining the vaulted ceilings and materials such as stained glass, Venetian plaster and dramatic marble that play with light.
