Michael Hill Clubhouse complements the landscape

Michael_Hill_Golf_ClubHouse.jpgThe client’s brief was to design a place that reinforced the game of golf, operating primarily as a “private box” whilst also providing the capacity to transform into a gateway headquarters for large competitive events.

Contemporist says 'Hunkered into the earth with less than a third of its volume penetrating above the ground plane, The Michael Hill Clubhouse seeks to integrate and intensify the experience of golf’s primary relationship with the landscape. An integral truss system creates a skewed form, and supports a green roof planted in native tussock.'

The Clubhouse was design by Patterson Associates and is well worth taking a look at on the Contemporist web site.
