Night Sky, designed by Peter Stutchbury Architecture, stands on a long, narrow block overlooking Blackheath Golf Course. From the street, it has a quiet presence, in no hurry to reveal itself – there are no obvious clues that this is a house that is both raw and refined; that has strength and power but, at the same time, a delicacy that speaks of the human hand.
It is one that feels both ancient and thoroughly contemporary; that aims for far more than the normal house yet is practical and liveable and eminently adaptable; and that, above all, elicits moments of magic and a sense of joy.
