To temper the coolness of the material, Brown has judiciously integrated other finishes and materials, both internally and externally. The north and south elevations, for example, are predominantly glass, with a privacy screen of charcoal-coloured vertical timber slats wrapping around the south-east corner of the first-floor balcony.
The front and rear glass facades encourage the ingress of natural light, complemented by light wells over the ensuite and stairwell that effectively siphon daylight into the middle interiors.
Internally, the concrete surfaces are balanced by timber flooring, and on the ground floor the kitchen bulkhead ceilings and adjoining wall section is finished in charcoal-coloured timber lining boards.
