Lang 靚 House Tour
VIDEO TOUR: INSIDE LANG HOUSE
Join Kevin and Andrew for a tour of Lang House (nicknamed "Pretty House"), a family home on a compact suburban block. Discover how strict site constraints and clever architecture combined to maximise every millimetre of this vibrant, sustainable space.
Kevin and Andrew show you how local planning codes and neighbouring walls directly shaped the home's exterior massing. They point out the facade's brick-inspired chevron pattern, fluted privacy glass, and a future flowering turf roof. Andrew explains how a precise 450mm level change creates a seamless transition and perfect built-in seating around a floating, furniture-like island bench.
The entry-level features a guest room with a hidden Murphy bed and an efficient "stacked" bathroom layout, leading up to the kids' rumpus wing. In the north-facing backyard, calculated eave overhangs maximise winter sun and block summer heat, powering a 100% electric, fossil-fuel-free home. The master suite utilises "upside-down" external louvres to block onlookers while framing distant views and capturing natural light. Kevin and Andrew wrap up by demonstrating that privacy is a sophisticated concept, not a fortress, proving you can embrace light, community, and style on a highly restricted footprint.
