Casey Brown Architecture
Casey Brown Architecture is a Sydney studio founded in 1986, with more than 100 built projects across city, country and coastal Australia. They design in direct response to climate, topography and lifestyle, with simple, effective strategies "that do not attempt to overcome or dominate nature". The result is a preference for "lasting architecture of unpretentious functionalism, characterised by a richness of palette and detail throughout", built with a long-standing team of consultants, makers and builders.
Their five projects on Lunchbox show that range. Permanent Camping offers the joy of camping without pitching a tent, and Pacific House uses burnt timber and rusting steel to dramatic effect. Crackenback Stables takes rustic, shed-like materials to the next level with fine detailing, Hart House at Great Mackerel Beach feels like it's floating on the water, and Jamberoo Farm House adds a trio of pavilions to a cluster of farm buildings.
