DOMUS

These are our final poster for the DOMUS project. The basis for the design was harnessing the wind and sun, as well as providing sufficient ventilation in the warmer months. The central fire place acts as a social focal point rather than a means to heat the whole house as during the months June/July, temperatures can drop below 10 degrees at night. This period of time is also when most visitors come to Kakadu due to the weather. Water Sacs are contained underneath the house and the guest section may be closed off when it isn't being used.
