Article source: HABITECH SYSTEMS PTY LTD Mullum Creek is a new residential sub-division of an old orchard east of Melbourne in Donvale.

This path cranks to the north as it moves through the house to maximise passive solar performance before terminating in a large east facing window which looks across Mullum Creek into a bushland reserve. As you move along the circulation path the floor level steps down whilst the ceiling remains high, opening up the rear of the house to the sky and garden.

To the north a large deck opens off the dining area for entertaining and enjoying the winter sun whilst taking in the great views the site offers. To the east a more private deck with a spa bath opens off the lounge and has views to Mullum Creek. To the south a sheltered and shady summer courtyard opens off the dining room.
