Linear House - IDEA 2023

Linear House

Architects EAT

The project is clad in a second skin of retractable timber slatted screens, providing shelter from the direct sun yet allowing daylight into the interior. Together with Kwilla louvres, these enable the residents to control the airflow inside the house. The project also utilises rainwater storage, solar electricity, insulation and double glazing to help achieve a 5 star rating. The 30,000L water tank services the toilets and is then processed onsite and used to irrigate the front yard.
