Our home on Noongar Wadjuk land, Geenunginy Bo (place of looking a long way) is a solar-passive upper-storey addition to a 1970s brick and tile house. Located only 200 metres from the beach in the northern suburbs of Perth, the new addition has been designed to maximise access to cooling, summer sea breezes, and northern winter sun, while also capturing ocean and inland views.
