Cooroy Art Studio

Cooroy, QLD, Australia

The studio captures the hill and takes command of the surroundings without bruising the landscape. The intervention, sited on the edge of a ridge beside Mt Cooroy, the paramounts were the breathtaking views, visual amenity of the surrounds, sustainability, flexibility, and the high wind factor. Also of great concern was the issue of constructibility on this precipitous site and creating permanent access to the Pavilion.
