This is a personal project of CCA Director, Ryan and his partner Minky, who fell in love with the horticultural paradise, Jubilee Gardens, which was a private nursery established 40 years ago by Joy Stones and Ted Cutlan. The robust and elegant new house and studio are designed to sensitively nestle in amongst the diverse and rare plant species established in the garden, taking in views of the bushland and mountain.
The house and studio are intentionally simple - a background to the garden’s seasonal blooms, constructed from expanded clay insulated masonry with gravel ballast roofs. The internal spaces are cosy and peaceful, featuring exposed GLT beams by, basalt flooring with hydronic underfloor heating, and custom brass windows and doors designed by Ryan and fabricated by

Emily is now taking a key role as Project Architect for our ongoing collaboration with to deliver specialist disability accommodation across Tasmania.
Emily’s personal passion for socially & environmentally responsible, affordable housing has driven grass-roots projects including the replicable housing for women & children facing homelessness, and her ongoing research and advocacy for cooperative housing in Tasmania.
Emily is highly valued by our clients and collaborators for her team-building skills and sensitive design thinking. She consistently keeps client, consultant and building teams in the picture in a way that achieves the best possible outcome for any project.

This post-occupancy review was undertaken by Dr Ceridwen Owen (UTAS) and Samantha Donnelly (UTS) in December 2024.
Our sincere gratitude to the resident of Elsie who generously offered her insights and experience with the hope that it will help inform future housing solutions for women and children facing homelessness after escaping domestic violence.

Nestled within the rugged coastal landscape of South Gippsland, the Venus Bay Shed is a thoughtfully-designed creative workspace, recently completed alongside the original Venus Bay House (2006). Positioned on the windswept sand dunes, this new additional structure provides a dedicated space for its owners—who live and work on-site—to immerse themselves in their creative pursuits.
Robust in its construction, the masonry structure is clad in weathering steel and double-glazed steel-framed windows, allowing it to blend seamlessly into the surrounding tea tree and coastal heath. The building’s stepped form follows the natural contours of the land, with the green roof planted with seed from locally-sourced species enhancing its integration into the fragile dune ecology. More than just a workspace, the Venus Bay Shed is a place of quiet contemplation—an adaptable and enduring structure that fosters creativity, while maintaining a deep respect for its coastal setting.
This project reflects Core Collective Architects’ commitment to designing with sensitivity to both site and function. The shed’s material palette, simplicity of form, and strong connection to the landscape ensures that it not only supports the creative endeavours of its owners, but also harmonises beautifully with the natural environment.
