The Story of Rebuilding a Home
RFS Firefighter Dave and his wife Barb were left homeless after their house was razed by a fire on New Year’s Day 2020. Humble and industrious people, Dave and Barb have spent their life serving others.
The Local project, Breathe Architecture, Davis Construction and Studio All partnered pro-bono with a host of suppliers to design and produce Cobargo House for Dave and Barb during 2021. The house was designed not only to replace what was lost but with a vision to integrate sensitively and sustainably with the landscape.
Australian made fittings, donated by generous suppliers, were sourced for the lighting design to create a sustainable and robust family home. Seamlessly incorporated within the landscape, Cobargo House is manifestly mindful of its environment. The house features breathtaking outlooks by way of multiple quiet nooks; subtly emphasised by warm feature lighting.
The unobtrusive design scheme allows the calm natural materials of the home to sing, providing mellow ambience for comfortable living. The architectural elements of the home are celebrated and complemented using lighting products that are sustainable and suitable for the carbon-neutral build.
Studio All was delighted to produce a sustainable and warm lighting scheme for the Cobargo House, inspired by the unique landscape and the humble and generous people who live there.
