Chan Architecture has recently completed a house in Melbourne, Australia, with an open light-filled interior with wood featured in two ways.
The first wall is made from a curved timber wall that wraps from the entryway and around to the dining room.

The other curved accent wall is showcased on the upper level of the home and is clad in curved timber battens.

Let’s take a look at the rest of the home…
The exterior features metal cladding with a white finish, black window frames, dark wood accents, and drystone stacked walls.

A large front door with dark vertical wood welcomes visitors to the home, with the stone wall continuing through the interior. A wall of floor-to-ceiling white cabinets provides plenty of storage, while a bench creates a place to take shoes off.
