MEMMS SHED
Residental - Yamanto
STATUS: ON-GOING
BACKGROUND
Like many Australian households currently navigating the country’s well-known housing pressures, the arrival of a new housemate meant we lost our only spare room. Rather than squeeze everything into the main house, we decided to build a purpose-designed shed that could serve as a shared retreat for my husband and me. The space needed to feel finished enough for overnight guests and casual entertainment, while also adding long-term value to the home.
DESIGN INTENT
To create a calm, practical space that belongs equally to both my husband and I - somewhere that supports quiet reading, shared downtime, watching sporting games and personal touches that make the shed feel more like an extension of the home.
CONTEXTUAL STATEMENT
A flexible backyard retreat created for a flexible everyday life - a place to read, watch sport, and simply be, after the spare room was given over to our housemate.

Kitchenette for easy drinks and light meals
Large library wall for books and quiet reading
