We've just had an enquiry about including the Starburst House in an exhibition in Germany.
Always a nice email to receive!
Here are some photos of a model of Hechingen Studio and images of the Starburst House at an exhibition in Sydney at the Australian National Maritime Museum.
The Oval Villa
Thanks to Kristy Johnson for her article about the Oval Villa in nine.com.au.
I’m not entirely sure how the article came to be, we’ve not published this house anywhere else, I’m not sure it’s even been posted on Instagram. Regardless of how it came to pass though, it is wonderful to see it being picked up. Massive thanks to Kristy.
All the rooms in the house are accessed off a central courtyard, which features a cooling pool.
We worked on the Oval Villa about a year ago for a resort on a small island in south east Asia.
The brief was for a standalone villa, that could either be serviced by a hotel, or be a self-sufficient, privately-owned, holiday home.
The main living room of the house, nestled under the sweeping roof.
In the end, the client paused the entire development so this project hasn’t gone any further, but it would have been fantastic to stay there sometime.
It would be lovely to see an iteration of it in another location.
We will post again soon about the concept behind the house and how the different spaces flow into one another.
Thanks to Katherine McLaughlin for featuring the Starburst House in another Architectural Digest article.
The Doolittle House pictured here is fabulous! I’d love to visit it sometime.

Just before Christmas we got another lovely book through the post.
It’s a real treat to see our work in print and great to see how much it resonates.
The wonderful team at Monsa have dedicated quite a few pages to our projects Hechingen Studio and Starburst House.
A giant thank you to all involved!
