Moebius House
Today’s project comes from Tony Owen Partners and is located in Sidney, Austrailia. With views accross the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge this family home was built using an innovative design method called “micro design”, that is environmentally sensitive. Here is some further information from the architects concerning the construction of this project: “Due to the complex geometry of this house and the need for such fine tolerances, we had to evolve a completely new system of fabrication and assembly for this house. We started off designing a house, but in the end the construction process more closely resembles that of a car. Early on it became apparent that this house would have to be detailed and documented entirely in 3 dimensions. The steel frame house is clad in metal panels which were pre-cut in China.”
