In keeping with the materiality of the wall cladding and the cantilevered design of the building, a simple lightweight aluminium and corrugated metal awning was positioned over the timber entry platform to provide rain shelter.

Another sliding door opens to a covered patio with enough space for an outdoor table, so the owner can enjoy working on her laptop or having a sip of tea. This sliding door is from the original bedroom, and is being reallocated here to help reducing costs.

In keeping with the materiality of the wall cladding and the cantilevered design of the building, a simple lightweight aluminium and corrugated metal awning was positioned over the timber entry platform to provide rain shelter. Over the cantilevered timber deck, a retractable awning is placed above the doors to provide sunshade and rain cover. The timber deck is 3.6m x 2.3m, large enough for 4 person dining. It takes advantage of the stunning southerly views to the mountains.

The approach to the Caza comes from an allocated parking space for the occupant. New asphalt driveway was installed as part of the build with added lilli pills hedge planted as an edge to the private open space. The roof slopes away from the entry side and all water is collected to holding tanks for use inside.

A sliding door gives independent access to the backyard, also connecting to the existing alfresco. The external finish matches the same tone of grey of the front facade, to keep it consistent.
