STAR Architecture have recently completed a new house in Melbourne, Australia, that has a timber screen on the facade.

A sculptural entry canopy meets the timber screen and guides visitors to the front door.

Inside, polished concrete flooring has been used throughout, which contrasts the white walls and natural materials.

Off to the side of the entryway is the living room. Simple, comfortable furniture has been combined with a rug and wood elements for a contemporary appearance.

A large sliding glass door opens the living room to a small deck, the backyard, and a paved area.

The paved area is located just off the open-plan kitchen and dining room. Light wood furniture and kitchen cabinets contrast the bright white walls.

In the master bedroom, wood flooring has been used instead of the concrete flooring downstairs, and a glass door opens to a balcony.

The balcony, home to potted plants and an outdoor seating area, hides behind the wood screen that covers the facade of the home.
