            The Little Big House is located upon the eastern slopes of Mount Wellington, high above Hobart. At 450 meters above sea level, set within a forested landscape, this house encounters snow in the winter months. 

            The house is designed to be intensely private. Given the cool climate, the house has two essential strategies – to hold the heat and find the light.

            The Little Big House is clad in vertical unfinished timber continuing traditions of local vernacular building in Southern Tasmania.
