The roof terrace introduces otherwise unknown views across the roofs and the treetops of adjoining properties, removing the users from the ground plane, whilst strengthening the connection back to natural environment. The pool in the rear yard was raised 1200mm from the ground plane, eliminating the requirement for a traditional pool fence, whilst also raising users of the pool to the same height as those adjacent the pool in the entertaining area. The introduction of the raised pool creates a mid level between the ground floor and level one, allowing the opportunity for a circular path of movement between the ground floor, the pool, the roof terrace and the master suite.
