In 1995-99, Brit Andresen designed this nature embracing home in North Stradbroke Island, Queensland, Australia. Its main purpose was to do just that, craft a space that would magnify the environment surrounding it. Andresen again, uses her signature of dark wooden beams and shutters throughout the house. This two-story home has a metal roof which illuminates the sounds of natural occurrences, such as rain and wind. It also has wide open rooms with tall windows and timber beams to add a modern perspective with a rustic twist.
