Apple Crate Shack<\/h1>\n
<\/h3>\n
Apple Crate Shack (aka 60k House) is an exploration of adequacy; the design is guided by needs, not wants. A modest footprint generates a generous volume, satisfying all spatial and functional requirements. Circulation is succinct and efficient; strong connections extend to engage with the site and landscape.<\/p>\n
Prompted by what I could afford, not what a conservative market dictated, a government grant provided the capacity and motivation to build – the personal connection enabled the freedom to experiment.<\/p>\n
The project is an investigation of ideas: reference to the local fruit industry is evident in the \u2018apple crate\u2019 aesthetic. All timber cladding was milled on site from trees that had to be felled. A limited palette of materials speaks of durability and economy, contrasting the rough and the refined.<\/p>\n
Working with an experienced builder provided a hands-on awareness of the consideration and craft demanded of the building process – a valuable learning experience.<\/p>\n
