Hanger Home

Located in the Kybong Airpark community, this innovative project seamlessly integrates residential living with aviation functionality, creating a unique lifestyle opportunity for its pilot owners. The distinctive barrel-vault roof form defines both the architectural expression and the interior experience, providing the necessary height and volume for aircraft storage while creating dramatic, light-filled living spaces above. This dual-purpose approach transforms a typically utilitarian structure into a sophisticated contemporary home that celebrates rather than conceals its specialised function.

The material palette employs robust industrial elements—profiled metal cladding in muted tones, exposed structural elements, and concrete floors—that reference the aviation context while creating a refined residential aesthetic. The upper level features an expansive open-plan living area that capitalizes on views with floor-to-ceiling glazing and a generous deck that serves as an observation platform overlooking the runway. Interior spaces incorporate custom joinery and subtle aviation-inspired details that connect the home to its context without resorting to themed decoration. The result is a compelling balance between pragmatic functionality and considered design that elevates this specialized building typology beyond pure utility to create a home that is both highly specific to its owners' needs and universally impressive in its architectural resolution.
