Current obsession.

I always had this obsession with small houses which were well designed, minimalistic, backlit and set in beautiful location. This particular one reminds me of a spaceship  :)
Odvždy som bola fascinovaná malými domami, ktoré boli dobre premyslené a navrhnuté, minimalistické, presvetlené a nachádzali sa na krásnych miestach. Tento konkrétny mi pripominá vesmírnu loď :)
Mudgee Permanent Camping
Designed by Casey Brown
Location: Mudgee, Australia
Located on a remote pristine mountain on a sheep station in central western NSW, this structure was the realisation of a dream for the client. The tower is sited at the edge of a ridge, surrounded by large granite boulders and ancient dead trees. Its remote location affords panoramic views for hundreds of miles to the horizon.
Conceived as a retreat for one or two people, the building has a minimal 3x3m footprint providing shelter. The structure is a two storey copper clad tower with the sides opening up on the ground level to provide wide verandahs to the north, east and western elevations. To the south, a water tank and winches are located to operate the moveable verandah roofs. When not in use these roofs close down to completely enclose the timber and glass interior, protecting it from the elements in particular bush fires.
Internally, the structure is beautifully crafted from recycled ironbark providing a sleeping loft and small kitchen with a Rais wood fired slow combustion stove. Water is collected on the roof with a separate WC, also in copper clad hardwood, located a short walk to the west. The structure is heavily insulated from cold winds as well as searing daytime temperatures, with multi layered walls all ventilated top and bottom allowing free air movement.
Due to the isolated nature of the building site, the building was completely prefabricated by the builder Jeffrey Broadfield in Sydney and then transported to site and erected.

I´ve never showed you this awesome bag I won at Jul´s blog. It looks very sophisticated and to my surprise it can carry a lot of school books too. The second photo was made by Tana and I just love it!
Nikdy som vám neukázala túto skvelú kabelku, ktorú som vyhrala na Julianinom blogu. Vyzerá veľmi sofistikovane a na moje prekvapenie sa do nej dokáže zmestiť plno školských učebníc. Druhú fotku urobila Tana, za čo jej ďakujem lebo tú fotografiu proste zbožňujem. Fascinuje ma ako dobre je zaostrená a pritom je to nechutné pozadie mierne rozmazané :)
