Obsidian House
Residential Architecture · Corner-Plot Villa · Corner Elevation, Dusk · Modern Contemporary
A two-storey corner residence in dark stacked stone and vertical timber slatting, photographed at dusk with its architectural lighting fully engaged. A folded roofline, glass stair tower, and a slatted steel entry gate give the house a strong street presence on both its frontages.
Using a dark, textured material palette and layered linear lighting to give a corner plot a confident identity from either approach.
