FIGTREE HOUSE

Embracing the outdoors, the Skinners Shoot house offers sheltered outdoor living spaces that invite you to bask in the beauty of nature.

A touch of Japanese inspiration can be found in the internal courtyard, bringing serenity indoors and connecting you with the elements.

Your journey into the Skinners Shoot house is carefully curated, with an entry experience that seamlessly links pavilions and sets the tone for the natural elegance that awaits.

The design ingeniously incorporates a natural courtyard that accommodates the overland flow of water, embracing sustainable water management.

Step inside, and you'll be greeted by an exposed hempcrete wall that not only adds visual intrigue but also showcases a captivating wave pattern created using oxide. This artistic internal feature shaped by our meticulous craftsmen builders.

Materials are thoughtfully chosen to complement the surroundings - lime render, timber, and of course, hempcrete. The design revolves around the view of a majestic fig tree and the existing vegetation, weaving the structure seamlessly into the natural landscape.

Built on passive design principles, the Skinners Shoot house is a paragon of energy efficiency and environmentally conscious living. Even the pool embodies sustainability with its freshwater environment swim system filtration system, reflecting our holistic approach to every aspect of the project.

Intricate, sustainable, and in perfect harmony with nature, the Skinners Shoot house stands as a testament to our dedication as experts in hempcrete and natural building.
