Tessellate

Tessellate reflects an approach to rural vernacular design that communicates an appreciation to the unique nature that inhabits the site and engages with the prominent community of the Twofold Bay site. The expression of curvature allows the concavity to enhance the role of spaces and provide views to all angles. The site offers a communal hub that displays a multifunctional space that suits to community needs through the articulation of detailing and flexibility. Through this, Tessellate hosts many services being the reception to camping areas, a café and a shop which cultivates native food sources historically used by the aboriginals.

Site Plan Tessellate locates itself within close proximity to the various other structures on the site to formulate a entry hub for visitors.

Section and Elevation The locally sourced clay wraps the exterior providing strong support to the timber frames and also controlling temperatures due to the designs thick outer skin.

Exterior Render Tessellate utilizes transparency within the entry and public doorways to allow ease of access throughout the design. High windows excel in granting indirect natural light to enter from all angles.

Interior Render The internal design celebrates elements of rammed earth supports that tie in the exposed timber framing formulating a rustic colour palate. Strategic openings allow view sightlines to scenic sites of the country of Jigmy Farm.
