Blok Stafford Heights is a simple, low-cost house on a sloping suburban site. It is a modular building, delivered and assembled as separate pre-fabricated components. These modules were paired with site-built landscape structures, such as the blockwork garden walls and retaining elements that unify the house and ground plane. In the face of massive cost escalation and uncertainty in the construction industry, Blok Stafford Heights provides a compelling example of how clever and restrained design can produce a low-cost family home that sits at ease in its suburban setting.
