Humans are both amazingly complex and wonderfully simple.
Complex science explains why natural light plays such a big role in our health. However, the simple version is that we need natural light through the day to feel energised and lift our mood.
Here, Melbourne building firm Fasham have embodied their commitment to harnessing light as a tool for living.
Daylight comes from many sources. It streams through perfectly oriented windows making slate floors glow in a family room where you just want to linger. A small, central plant-filled atrium tempers strong light for a lush, inviting effect while also serving as the home’s primary cooling mechanism.
At night, you will love darkness and tranquility that comes from being housed in a serene, architectural island plumb in the middle of your 823sqm block, bordered on all sides by a garden that provides a natural buffer from urban lights and sound.
The garden deserves its own book. Come see it. Smell it. Enjoy the play of light it creates. Feel your mood soar.
