Holman House by Durbach Block Jaggers

A Picasso painting inspired this cliff-top house near Sydney by architectsDurbach Block Jaggers.


The two-storey Holman House was completed atop the 70 metre-high cliff at Dover Heights back in 2004. Stone walls surround bedrooms on the ground floor, which nestle against the rock face.

The curved forms of the kitchen and living room, which project over the sea supported by four angled stilts, are derived from the torso of Picasso’s The Bather.





Terraces surrounding the house at different levels provide two patios, a top floor garden and a lower level swimming pool. This project is the third Australian house published on Dezeen in the last week, following one residence with an oversailing glass roof and another that incorporates cantilevering concrete slabs – see all our stories about projects in Australia here.
