Western shading boxes for afternoon summer sun.
The east and west facades feature Le Corbusier inspired ‘brise-soleil’, protruding fins to shade the glazing from the low angle afternoon sun. Le Corbusier liked to use bold primary colours to accent the otherwise plain grey concrete of his facades. Likewise here, once the red ironbark shiplap cladding has developed a natural grey weathering, the splashes of colour will bring joy and interest.
