Wilga is a modern sustainable minimalist home, located in a leafy suburb of the northern Sydney regions and is surrounded by protected Sydney blue gum trees. The house incorporate trees in design in respect to environment. It archives zero carbon footprint and passive climate control. The form is derived from a simple cube, no elements projecting outside cube faces, instead features carved into the cube. It achieves a meditative space via simplicity and nature while offering a subtle luxury. It follows Mike's believes: luxury is an experience, and architecture should blend with nature.
