Devising a modernist super house requires a deep understanding of the interplay between architecture, interior design and the natural garden and landscape. Championing a heightened sense of experience, Witta Circle engages with the internal and external spaces – privacy screens, purposeful zoning and considered materiality articulates a levelled layering, accentuated throughout the house tour. Located in Noosa Heads on the Sunshine Coast, Witta Circle is a home that endeavours to claim the coveted title of modernist super house. Shaun Lockyer Architects has executed a robust yet warm home, with a strong sense of space, place and immersion.
By challenging traditional notions of how architecture converses with interior design and externally with landscape, Witta Circle embraces open planned living, dedicated to public gathering spaces. Moving through seamless thresholds, the home occupies both inside and outside areas. Showcased throughout the house tour is the swimming pool, garden and wine cellar. Through deliberate use and placement of skylights, windows and courtyards, light is filtered throughout the interior design. This includes the creative solution to bringing light down into the basement, where natural light is filtered through water and glass panels within the outdoor pool of the modernist super house.
Upon arrival, there is a strong connection between the built and natural environments. The façade of the super house is a literal layer atop the architectural dialogue of the home. The house tour identifies the external screen as another consideration for privacy, sun protection and experience. It also takes approximately 50% of the heat off the façade, creating an exchange between the natural environment and the architecture, which tempers the internal experience of the modernist super house.
The materiality of the house is an ode to the natural landscape. The charred timber references texture and natural forces, whilst the concrete speaks to a bolder interpretation of form. The plants soften the harder aspects of the built structure, with green cascading over the walls and submerging the home within the environment.

One of life's simple pleasures – seeing a new video from y'all pop up on my notifications 😁😂
Interesting art for the guest bedroom
What type of marble is used in the kitchen?
Why does your videos always make me want to move there?! 😍
Love and greetings from Canada!
I just love the space of this home! The open floor plan sold me, plus the materials used were talking to the interiors.
It feel great complimenting with each other! Thanks Local Project! 😎
❤
Can anybody help me identify the hanging plant featured at 4:30? I've been trying to search it via Google Images but I'm not finding it.
Wonderfully Beautiful Place!
Witta tourrr,senior, treffling, yu love yu
An awesome house in a very expensive part of Noosa. Beautiful. I wouldn't go swimming in the river though…bull sharks abound!
Wahh keren tu bang
👍 great
Another masterpiece from Shaun Lockyer
love it
There's a certain white house on the right at 1:12 or something, i feel like i've dreamt of it, or at least the aesthetics of being inside it, hopefully one day i'll have a similar house or better, but man does it feel familiar
This house looks so peaceful and naturally, the environment is just perfect. Great job by the architects and their team.
Absolutely stunning! Amazing job on every detail and captured beautifully by the video team. The only thing that is strange is having a large painting of a different house in the center as I feel that detracts from the appreciation of the amazing house you are currently in. I have no use for a wine cellar so that would be converted to a large sauna for me and then it would be perfection 🙂
I love the balance of materials—keeps tis modern design from feeling cold.

Super house is an understatement.
Mr David Nicholls, deputy editor of ‘House and Garden’ (UK), designed a pictograph of stick-figure corpses, arranged in a numbered grid of equal columns and rows, upon a piece of paper. He then, with a pencil, filled in the lines between the bodies so as to outline a Swastika, laughing: “This game is called – Connect the Jews!”
Think this anecdote to be bullsh*t?
Ask him flat out to deny it.
Discover who is really the man behind whoever’s rating the carnal suppleness of your silken bedsheets.
