Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Spiegel Haus By Carterwilliamson Architects is Restful and Robust

Overall, however, the Spiegel Haus focuses on elements that bring a sense of relaxation to those residing inside. With tons of open spaces and natural lighting, it's hard to imagine anything but enjoying a good rest. This ambiance is complemented with a robust design by Carterwilliamson Architects.

Located in Sydney, Australia, the Spiegel Haus is stunning. The studio write, "Our clients’ trust and vision has commissioned a home that responds to the constraints of inner-city living and the complexities of family life through spatial planning and materiality in order to maximise space, light, longevity and joy."
