Castle Cove House is a feature concrete formed residence of challenging geometry and complex structural solutions including a slender 7.0m cantilever folded concrete extrusion at the main building approach.
The bold architectural form presented multiple structural challenges as the building wraps around an existing mature tree on the site, while following the natural topography contours.
The residence has been awarded the ‘Best House in the World’ at the WAF World Architecture Festival 2019 and won an ACSE Excellence in Structural Engineering award as well as the Concrete Institute of USA Excellence in Concrete Award ASCE 2019. The projects final stage was completed in December 2020.
