Creating the Ultimate Retreat: Sydney's Invisible House

Keywords: Architecture and Interior Design

Construction is soon to begin on “The Invisible House”, Australian design firm EnterArchitecture’s response to a Sydney client’s request for a home designed to ‘disappear’.

The novel design features deflected walls, which prevent the house from being completely visible from any single vantage point. Instead, it offers different perspectives from every point of view, creating what its designers call a “four-dimensional” space.

The home will be constructed with super-lightweight carbon fiber, borrowing technologies and materials from Formula 1 and the Aerospace industries to create paper-thin walls that are both light and strong.

In spite of its unconventional design, The Invisible House functions like any other normal two-story family home, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and an open living room and kitchen area.
