When normal is sculptured to become the beautiful – Seed House

Receiving a Commendation for Residential Architecture at the recent NSW Architecture Awards, Seed House by Sydney architects Fitzpatrick & Partners is positioned on a typical steep bushland block overlooking Middle Harbour at Castlecrag. Surrounded by rocky outcrops and angophora trees, the home grows out of its natural surroundings which informed it choices of materials – stone, timber, steel and concrete.

About the Project

Utilising the latest technologies in engineered timber construction, this healthy home imbues a sense of warmth and comfort. Every bracket and screw is used to inform the overall aesthetic of the home, with materials selected so to develop a patina of use and character with time. The normal is sculptured to become the beautiful. Its experimentation in construction and engineering has supported the architectural vision. It is a forever home, yet it is home to a young family. It will adapt and change as they do, forever.
