Coopworth project by FMD Architect allows an architect to design a house on a remote island. Designing and building a remote house comfortably nestled on 120 hectares of arable land on Bruny Island, Tasmania, Coopworth interacts harmoniously with the site’s climate and resident sheep. In building and designing a remote house, FMD Architect has taken great care to deliver architecture and interior design that welcomes congregation and connection, despite the home’s secluded location.
Designing and building a remote house to celebrate the land’s history involves a nod to the faded red iron shacks dotted across the island. Coopworth by FMD Architect juts from the soil in garnet corrugated cladding - an innovative reimagining of the traditional Australian farmhouse. Reverence to the home’s setting is felt when observing the panorama of green pastures afforded by vast bay windows, boldly framing the vista while acting as passive heat and light sources.
Designing and building a remote house presented a unique opportunity to the architect to embrace the use of a local, sustainably sourced material - resident sheep’s wool, cleverly used as insulation. Fluffy fleece peeps through clear corrugated polycarbonate over the dining area to remind houseguests of the intimate connection to arable land and agriculture.
Further emphasising connection is the deft insertion of beds tucked cosily in private nooks and bordering the home’s expansive windows. Inviting familial bonding for the client’s extended family was FMD Architect’s focus when building a remote house. The home feels humble at first glance, yet roomily sleeps 20 - the experience reminiscent of the classic “sleep out”.
Orientated ideally to display a breathtaking vantage at every turn, a house tour reveals the sparkling bay and mountain ranges that envelop Coopworth in its rugged, natural setting.

This house is the paragon of geometric architecture, both from the furniture to the ceiling.
This house gave me goosebumps. Felt It to the core man. This is how the house should look like
Best Local Project selection so far I see, great use of material and detail, very sensitive and smart architect, well done!!!
The cinematography for these video is always amazing! Loved the house as well from the openness to all of the natural light.
Such a thoughtful design with unique features. Love the sleeping beds by the windows. I can imagine that the sunrise and sunset views must be quite captivating. Love the use of passive solar to ensure warmth. Love the lack of cutters and the care in designing a house which is low maintenance and will not easily deteriorate or won't deteriorate at all. There is a beautiful simplicity to the design and a richness in the design.
The asymmetry of this house is amazing and the exposed insulation inside is really cool!
Kudos for using the “Terrain” colour of the colourblind corrugated cladding outside. A most unusual colour and a welcome departure from the usual narrative of modern architecture these days. Also the asymmetry of the home adds interest visually and those red bricks compliment the corrugated iron very well indeed.
First class program 👌👍
This is so tastefully done 😩
Finally! I found now a perfect video from you guys. This is exactly what I was waiting for...a sheep farm by the lake :) thank you!
I have to say tho, I'm a little obsessed with you videos at this point ;)
🥰
The sites that all of these homes are built on are simply amazing. Beautiful home. Modern, but cozy. The woodwork (never would have thought that was plywood; obviously a high grade plywood) and the brick work is exquisite, I'd like to have had a mention on that cool firebox, that can probably. heat the entire house! LOL Looking forward to the next reveal.
Love the house and the video work! As a Canadian, I did need to chuckle though when they said "cold climate" 😂 I'll gladly trade places on this cold winter day!
Fair point! 😂
th-cam.com/video/G-jeKh_rhR8/w-d-xo.html how you think about this plan. My wallets are empty. But I try
Gorgeous. So odd hearing the word “North” and “direct sunlight” in the same sentence. From a northern hemisphere architect.
These videos are ALWAYS so interesting with the architectural aspect and camera work showing off the spaces PLUS the amazing editing and peaceful vibe these videos give off. So great👌

This channel is amazing. Really inspiring designs every time.
Beautiful project - very Australian
I ADORE this house.
ADORE.
JUST WOW!
This place was really nice! Absolutely loved the bathroom with the shower and bathtub. The windows for the rooms on the second level were also really cool in that they were very cozy.
Simply beautiful and beautifully simple
Such a stunning home!
just wow!
Such beautiful ideas 💡 love the architecture harmony of the Nature 🌳. Farm house 🏡 :)
really amazing
Nice
Спасибо, это фантастика!)
Juste magnifique 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Gorgeous !
This is one of the best illustration of story telling on your channel. I find most to be pretentious in nature, but this house has a real pure applicable quality to itself.
YEEEEEEEEEEES
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES DONALD I AGREE
th-cam.com/video/G-jeKh_rhR8/w-d-xo.html more people have dreams. Can you tell me something my plan
A beautiful piece of art!
So cool ❗😃👍 i like this content
Beautiful 😍🙏💚
"Excellent videos on this channel!!"
Awesome project!! Awesome architecture!
Stunning
Awesome house
Beautiful- love to figure out the joint detailing on the corrugated metal- and the set out!
Amazingly designed 🥰😍
Love the spaces.
Amazing! love the 'woolfresco'
hermosa casa
Finally one of these Local Project houses that has some decent furniture.
This house is pretty awesome. Everything is so simple yet enough. I mean what the hell they are doing in "modern" houses sanding the walls the painting then sanding probably again 😂 No unnecessary labour, that's what we need. I guess It's the same problem as everywhere else. People come in real estate development not to create amazing environments for people but to make some bucks. So sad. But It's getting better I think, people begin to realise what is going on
cool
So nice
No gutters? How is rainwater directed away from the house? I would love to see a detail of how they handle this.
Maybe a very sandy soil ? Technical points are rarely addressed in architecture videos (starting with foundations), and I'm not speaking about this channel specifically.
french drains are one option... absorb into a ground pipe and direct the flow away from the house.
❤❤❤❤
No gutters means no leaks? I don’t get it.
I love the fact that the exterior is not corrugated iron painted in black.
❤❤❤❤❤
Проект неплохой
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
SO stunning. Any clue as to what kind of windows were used? I also live in a picturesque, cold/harsh environment and want to retain the view while also retaining heat / repelling cold. Thank you again for making these beautiful videos!!!!!
Hmmm... I am not sure of the specifics of this project, but I'd say look for double or triple-glazed windows (they probs used double). The views won't really be affected as glass is pretty transparent these days! If I was working on this project, I'd probably do triple-glazed (air filled is OK), since they have so much window area! It will help the house from feeling cold. The frame doesn't matter as much, but I imagine they used metal frames since the designer said they wanted durable materials. Usually all these are condensed into a thermal performance value (U-value or R). Higher U is worse, but higher R is good, so you can compare when shopping for windows.
I guess also for reference: most skyscrapers have double-glazed with metal frames, but recently in some cities have been bumping up to triple-glazed because TBH double-glazed is inadequate when you have that much glass. Also applies to houses with a lot of glass like this one. :)
좋구나 가즈아~
Beautiful space. Does anyone have an ID in that coffee table?
The local project
💯
Top abode ..
Великолепно
👌
- It's very cold outside.
- Ok, we will make giant windows.
What about utilities? I didnt see any solar. Heating presumably is the wood fires?
Beautiful property. Can someone pls explain to me how a gutterless place keeps the water out or has less issues? How then is water kept away from the home?
Yeah, I'm wondering the same thing. Presumably there is just sufficient overhang and it falls away from the walls.
Do some urban homes!!!
what does "and the residence sheep mean " ?
Is the Terrain color commercially available?
Does anyone know what tile is in the backsplash? I’ve asked fisher and paykel but they didn’t get back to me
what is the brand of fire place?
She probably meant without internal gutter and therefore avoid any leak....but if its external gutter, having a leak is irrelevant....
I feel like they needed to explain and justify that "no gutters" decision. Looks to me like with all that corrugated roofing they'll be encased in pounding sheets of water during a downpour. All that water force being repeatedly directed at the exact same place on the ground will quickly erode a canal around the perimeter of the house. This can actually cause real problems over time. Especially without pronounced eves, they're directing a lot of forced water along the foundation.
How would temperature control be assessed at night, specially with the window sided beds ?
Yeah, and nothing on what blackout blinds there must be?
Love the place, hate the "wool fresco"
Just one word... (a) J U W E L
Jewel.
I am just curious how the owner gets natural gas, internet, tab water, electricity, etc... at such a remote location?
I think it's a cabin, so they don't need PV panels and their own rain water reserves ? Just a guess and the same question goes for all houses on the island, but looking at a map there are roads, hotels, regular ferry services to the next mainland city 3 kilometers away, 30 km from Hobart, so delivery services should be easy to organize.
I love this channel and they content, but the second soooooong guys 😢
man imagine doing the lawn mowing job here
Sheeps can take care of that !
@1:28 - Anybody know the brand / maker of that chair?
No never seen it do you want one?
@@fiod8666 yes
I asked some people I come back to you. But I think you should look for some Swedish designers instead like Yngve Ekström, Bruno Mathsson, Arne Norell.
The experts in Sweden didn’t recognize the chair.
@@fiod8666 thanks for asking / looking
I like the Local Project items, but with respect 90 of the properties shown all seem to look the same with the same horizontal shoe box format with the same cliched architecture speak, about diffused light, being part of the landscape, and connected to the earth, etc, etc, etc,
I can't use a mouse without a mouse pad
Taste is subjective, I know, but I dislike the colour of the house, inside and out, as it feels gaudy. Given the amount of light in the home, internal vines or pot plants may assist with this. It does not feel as well integrated into it's surroundings as it could.
I understand the desire for low maintenance but I would certainly consider trees, for shade, wind protection, to assist in preventing soil erosion and encouraging birdlife. Not enough or any genus/species to ruin the view though. Obviously leaves in roof guttering are not an issue here. I''d love to hear a drainage engineer's perspective on this.
Corrugated corten would have been a better exterior choice in my humble opinion.
well thought but not for me.
I pay for YT premium because advertisements ENFURIATE me. Would have watched several more videos, but I've heard enough ads on your channel
The houses on this channel are incredible, I just hope they stop talking a lot and give full tour of the projects. Like we need to see the designs not you.
Acoustically TERRIBLE - you can hear the echo.
Am I the only one that utterly hates it?
Hideous colour, horrible, soulless interior. I appreciate the skill and design but honestly, I think it’s possibly the ugliest house I’ve ever seen. I don’t think I’ve ever had such a visceral dislike for a modern build before. Plywood interiors are such a ridiculous fad. The red brick sections are completely unforgivable. I do not think this property will age well at all.
Huh, I didn't expect to like it this much from the thumbnail. It may not be an obvious "dream house" but the respect for the place and the materials, and the need to be maintenance free, have been articulated perfectly, and I appreciate that. I also think it will age well, which isn't always the case in more bare spaces.
The only thing I would correct is the lighting -unfiltered from the sides, or directly from above, creates unpleasant shadows for the dwellers and spoils the warmth.
