House at Lake Connewarre


Designed by Melbourne architect Kerstin Thompson from 1999–2002, House at Lake Connewarre is located in Leopold, Victoria. It is a house characterised by its black, flat, long roof blending into the landscape around Lake Connewarre. The architect described the house as “a simple gesture across the landscape”. The house is an attempt to create dialogue with nature in a poetic way and the house design is strongly influenced by the landscape. The site of House at Lake Connewarre is situated at the northern part of Lake Connewarre and 2.3 km

. The long, strip windows frame the views over the lake, and stretch the length of the exterior wall, which contains the major room. The pool deck to the north side is clad with timber, and is inserted into the landscape front yard, and connects to the main house through a full height glass wall, which is designed to become a part of the interior experience of the house. Architect Kerstin Thompson has an ambition to blend houses with nature. The Lake Connewarre house is an attempt to create dialogue with

house. The architect, Kerstin Thompson, defines the house as “a simple gesture across the landscape”, where the simplicity and gesture translates to the finish and roofing, but in general it means poetry and a conversation with the nature. In this house, simplicity, beauty, and site, are key elements which the architect tried to achieve. The house is divided into three programs under its folded roof form; guesthouse/recording studio, main house and garage, in a 500m2 area. The structure is a low

is stretched to fill in the site and read as a sequence, instead of a singular form. The large plan of the house creates a territory and domestic interior with its linear architecture. Its position becomes a threshold between the new exotic northern front yard landscape, and the indigenous southern backyard flowing to the lake. Based on the size of the house, the architect described it as ‘house-as-resort’, and ‘weatherboard shack’, as a way of describing the finishes and materials. The use of

upstream. Lake Connewarre forms part of the Port Phillip Bay (Western Shoreline) and Bellarine Peninsula Ramsar Site as a wetland of international importance, with much of the wetland area also part of the Lake Connewarre State Game Reserve. However, most of the land surrounding Lake Connewarre has been cleared for agricultural purposes resulting in environmental degradation. Water pollution from upriver has also resulted in a drop in water quality, and reduced inflows to the lake have caused silting problems. The lake is shallow being less than one metre in depth and

conventional construction methods allows this structure to be built without ostentation, and also without exceeding budget requirements for such a floor space. Architect Kerstin Thompson has described the folded roof of the house as a’ translation of the plan, and a metaphor of an origami swan.’ The internal planning also follows the same procedure and produces the plan with the ceiling having the same geometry across the space. The significance of this structure is not the ceiling, but the roof itself, which cannot be seen from caves, but sometimes

from the ridge. The simplified roof gives the ability to read the internal plan, from the exterior. Different from the exterior, the interior of the house is not so conventional; it is a lot more simplified. The idea itself comes from the decision of Architect and client, to emphasise more the enclosure, rather than quality of finish. The difference of spaces between the pavilions is a means of framing views. The use of plywood floor, and plasterboard lining is the continuation from the exterior cladding in a straightforward manner

Lake Connewarre


Lake Connewarre (Aboriginal Wathawurrung language: Kunawarr keelingk literally meaning "black swan lake"), a shallow estuarine lake on the Barwon River, is located on the Bellarine Peninsula southeast of Geelong in the Australian state of Victoria. It is adjacent to, and downstream from, the freshwater Reedy Lake. Lake Connewarre is linked to the sea by the mangrove-fringed channel of the lower Barwon River estuary, resulting in the lake being subject to tidal flows, with a weir at the inflow to the lake preventing saline water progressing

Part of the Eastern Precinct of the large Armstrong Creek Growth Area was within Connewarre when urban development began in 2010, but in 2012, when the new suburb Armstrong Creek was gazetted, Connewarre's boundary was adjusted to exclude the area north of Lower Duneed Road and the west of Baenschs Lane

Because of its relatively small size and isolation from the rest of the Lake Connewarre wetland complex it is threatened by edge effects, including pollution from stormwater run-off. A report by Neville Rosengren for the Save Barwon Heads Alliance recommended that the lagoon should be protected by a geoheritage conservation zone of low intensity land use.

Lake Connewarre State Wildlife Reserve


Lake Connewarre State Wildlife Reserve (LCSWR) is a 3411.1 ha Park in Victoria, Australia, that contains a diverse range of unique and significant ecosystems including a river, tidal delta, lakes, swamps, salt marshes and grasslands. Lake Connewarre State Wildlife Reserve is situated on the lower reaches of the Barwon River on Victoria's Bellarine Peninsula, approximately 8 km south-east of Geelong and 65 km south-west of Melbourne. The Reserve holds the largest area of remnant vegetation on the Bellarine Peninsula and contains the most extensive

As well as the saline and tidally affected Lake Connewarre itself, the reserve includes the adjacent freshwater Reedy Lake and the ephemeral Murtnaghurt Lagoon. Part of LCSWR is designated a State Game Reserve and is available for duck and quail hunting each year. Other recreational uses include fishing, windsurfing, canoeing and nature study.

Reedy Lake


Reedy Lake, historically also known as Lake Reedy, is a shallow intermittent freshwater lake or swamp on the lower reaches of the Barwon River, on the Bellarine Peninsula southeast of Geelong in the Australian state of Victoria. The lake is included in the Lake Connewarre State Game Reserve, managed by Parks Victoria and is the largest freshwater swamp in central Victoria, and is part of a wetland complex which includes Hospital Swamp, Lake Connewarre, Salt Swamp and the Barwon estuary. The lake's outlet to the tidal lower Barwon River is

University of Queenslands Dr John MacArthur has stated that “the silhouette is similar to that of the black swans that occupy the lake. It forms a conversation with nature by adapting to its language as a part of landscape, a windbreak on the ridge, and an interval on the horizon.” Following the ridge of the cliff, and shape of the land, the house

Bellarine Wetlands Important Bird Area


The Bellarine Wetlands Important Bird Area comprises a group of wetland sites, with a collective area of 46 km, at the western end of the Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria, south-eastern Australia. The site is important for waterbirds and orange-bellied parrots. The wetlands include the Moolap saltworks, with the adjacent intertidal mudflats of Point Henry and Corio Bay, and the extensive wetlands of Reedy Lake, Hospital Swamp and Lake Connewarre. Reedy Lake is contiguous with Hospital Swamp, Lake Connewarre, Salt Swamp, Murtnaghurt Lagoon and the

apart from the center of Leopold, Geelong. The site of the house was originally an old degraded farmland with a tough landscape of shaggy marsh. The house is built on a high ridge at the edge of the flatland and is located above the flooding line. To the north of the house is a large piece of flat abandoned farmlands. A continuous line of pine trees were planted to block the view towards the farmlands while a pathway is made to allow residents to get to the lake which is 100m south from the

Lands along the eastern shore of the lake once were part of an estate belonging to Joseph Spencer of Balgarrup near Kojonup in 1884. In 1887 it was proposed to the Albany Municipal Council by Councillor Robert Andrew Muir that the Council apply to the Government to grant the land surrounding Lake Seppings as a Commonage for the Municipality.
