When you buy a property next to a lake, framing water views seems like the natural design response. However, when the view is located in the opposite direction of the sun, a design dilemma ensues. 

Kennedy Nolan architects were faced with this predicament in a recent Ballarat project, calling for a masterful design response. Their solution – raise the home’s facade up a half-step to take advantage of the lake, while adding in north-facing clerestory windows throughout. These windows ensure ample natural light (important for navigating Ballarat’s cold winters), while the elevation facilitates lake views and privacy away from the adjacent busy road. 

Another key challenge was to give this brand new home a mid-century feel – almost impossible in a new build! Kennedy Nolan managed to achieve this in collaboration with their client, and builder Spence Construction. 

‘The client liked American looking ‘Brady Bunch’ style houses…. They also liked a subtropical vibe, which isn’t really appropriate for Ballarat,’ says Patrick Kennedy, co-founding director and principal at Kennedy Nolan. ‘In the end, we settled on a design with nostalgic elements to it with the stone and classic modernist feel, while managing proximity to the lake.’

Also important in achieving this established look was the garden, designed by Sally Gilbert Landscape.

‘They didn’t want anything ostentatious – they wanted something much more low-key – so it’s designed to fall back into the landscape over time,’ Patrick says.  

Photos of this home were taken just eight months after completion, but lush vines and foliage can already be seen stretching across the property’s walls. ‘Everything was designed to establish pretty quickly, but also to grow over time,’ Patrick says. ‘There’s some big trees that will come up over the next 20 years.’

In the decades to come, the home’s natural materials will gracefully age and patina, walls will be engulfed in vines, and tree canopies will join in a green dome. A truly timeless home, destined to age gracefully!

My heart is a memory, ch 2

Title:  My heart is a memory (and there you’ll always be)

Characters:  Bucky Barnes, Steve Rogers, Wanda Maximoff, T’challa

Warnings: past torture referenced

Chapter Two summary:    Bucky learns how the triggers will be removed while Steve frets over something he can't hit.

“Are you suure you’re sure about it?”

Bucky sighs expressively,  pressing his thumb and forefinger against his forehead  and blowing off steam like a wonky radiator.   Are you fucking kidding me pal?  It’s Ground Hog day.  Again.   The same words- the same argument all over for what-the fifth, sixth time?  It didn’t work in the hours after they had first landed when it was going under cryo, and it sure as hell won’t now.  Nothing’s changed except his arm and his mental state.  The former is no longer a fried mess of painful shorting ends.  The latter is oddly considerably soothed by three months of just being off.  

Who knew?  For once cryo had been almost a vacation.

It’s enough to cut his best friend some slack.  He counts to three and intercepts the offer before it can come.    “I’m sure.” 

Five of them sit around an expanse of dark inlaid wood on day two after his awakening.  The detritus of a typical Wakandan breakfast is scattered across the table top: tea and mandazi, sweet bread and three types of fragrant fruit.  He’s had a bit of each, they’re all good but not quite so good as the cup of thick black coffee with a small mountain of sugar that lies warm beneath his remaining hand.   Thawed out fingers crave the warmth just as his body needed the blissfully heated blankets, the endless hot shower to remove the contact gel.  

It’s a luxury to be warm.  And amply fed.  He grabs a fifth pastry before he has time to change his mind.

Outside, the early morning’s mist has burned off quickly.  Fish eagles caw and hunt for breakfast of their own, circling lazily on a green humidity that is the signature of the Mvuli-the short rains of November that lash against the glass.  T’Challa, ever the gracious host, has given his newest guest the honoured seat to his right.  Wanda sits, bright-eyed, relaxed, impossibly at ease after a brief tour of the facility.  She has exclaimed softly over the sumptuous and gem-coloured, comfortable accommodation provided for her (nothing grey; nothing to remind her of the Raft) and declined a nap before they meet.   The flight from Montenegro is long, its bustling city on the sea lacks a major airport hub but also conveniently lacks an extradition treaty.

If living in her fourth home in one short year bothers her the poised young woman does not let it show.

“You will rest some days Miss Maximoff, before the attempt?”  T’Challa asks, smoothly diverting the flow of conversation away from the large blond bundle of nerves across to his left.  Wanda has just explained the ‘how’.  The tracing of conditioned memories into his cortex, sifting through a million electric interfaces to find the one, replacing rigid, triggered neural interfaces with new.  

When Steve had rubbed his shivering back and confirmed they’d found a way Bucky had just assumed it was some psychiatric reconditioning. Not the enigmatic skills of a barely-no-longer teen in a long flowing crimson dress.  He smiles.  Wanda’s auburn hair is pinned up for once in deference to the climate.  It makes her look older but fools exactly no one as to enormity of the task.

In a funny way Bucky likes the idea of being cured by someone who has had to choose another way.

“There is no need,” Wanda replies, painted nails curling tighter around a delicately painted tea cup emblazoned with scarlet ibis birds.  “I am ready whenever Bucky is.”    

All eyes turn to him.   It is a relief.  If Wanda is good to get straight to work then Bucky is is absolutely fine with that.  She has explained how keeping up her energy will be important if the effort proves refractory or long.   T’Challa and Dr. Sesanne confirm there is provision for this, everything from feeding them both through intravenous drip to stopping and starting to allow them both some rest. 

Nothing stands in the way of his release, except his best friend’s sudden case of nerves.  

God knows Bucky doesn’t want to cause Steve any pain but jesus he just wants this done.

Wanda calmly pours herself another steaming cup as Steve frowns and waves off her offer of more tea.  An obdurate flush burns down his cheeks and throat. “I don’t like it.” 

“I know.”  A sweet, untroubled smile flashes across her heart-shaped elfin face. Steve fidgets with his napkin.  Bucky can’t tell if he’s more concerned by the risk to him or her. Likely it’s both of them.  Steve’s overexpressed dad gene has clearly expanded to include another orphan in the flock. He frowns.  That stiff, small downturn of lips would on anyone else be a sign he’s pissed.  Not Steve. 

When he’s pissed he smiles.

“Wanda, it’s my fault.  Maybe I shouldn’t have brought you here.”

“Of course you should have.  I cannot do it from so far away.”  

T’Challa just barely smothers his chuckle with a cough.

How had Steve morphed in two scant days from his ebullient, enthusiastic self to this?   Buck is hard pressed to sort it out.  It’s not that he doesn’t trust and respect Wanda’s power- he does, they all do- and her confidence in her skills is reassuring, if a little startling in one so young.  Perhaps waking up in another century makes someone wary, conditioned for unpleasant, sideways surprises and now he’s had time to overthink?  Perhaps it is that this is something intangible, difficult for her to explain and the young punk from Brooklyn’s back alleys has always had an innate lack of trust in foes he can’t smash with his own two hands.  If the triggers were chain for a Tyrannesaurus Rex Steve “Fight Me”  Rogers would have already found a way..

Bucky roughly clears his throat.  “The book is not gone.”   Nope, and neither is the more proximate if equally predictable threat.  Ross.  He does not say the name but catches a flicker of storm cloud in ocean blue.  Of the two he’d rather deal with a judgemental, obsessive man.   And though the others- Steve, Sam, even T’challa for all he had no history or reason- seem certain Buck is not so likely to lose himself in IT again, they would not be the ones to feel the body slam of guilt/fear/regret if so much as another hair on someone’s head was hurt. 

Pretty simple when you get down to it.  He cannot trust himself.  And needs to be safe within his mind.

“No it is not, although I dispute the risk of you ever hearing those words again.”  T’Challa, a grounded and measured presence, does not argue too very much. Or only at least as much Buck expected.  Wakanda’s king frowns thoughtfully across steepled fingers as if trying to unpack what makes him tick.  “Sergeant you are doing well. Adjusting admirably.  All the therapists have said as much and there is the evidence of our own eyes.  We can keep you safe here.”  

Sesanne, the chief neurologist and steadiest doctor he’s ever met, removes his glasses and lays them tiredly on the table top.  The man considers it a personal failure that no more conventional solution has been found.  “Perhaps if there was more time…”

“No,” Bucky replies flatly, impatient with any hesitation.  “I’m not going back under.   We have a solution and I’m not waiting any longer. ”  

There’s a pained noise from off to his left.  “But..”

What the fuck Rogers?!   It was Steve’s own idea to bring Wanda in.  He opens his mouth ready to argue this very point but then catches two frozen, faint lines between blond brows, lip bitten white.  It’s an expression he’s seen only once before—at Sarah’s too-quiet bedside.  Shit.  He's being dense.  Steve finds this hard.  He’d only just found Bucky before his friend had to be put away-again- and now he would be far happier to just watch his back and keep him hid forever.  

Avoid any pain or risk.

But they both know that’s not the way life truly works.

T’Challa smiles sadly.  “Steven your concern for your friend is admirable, but you must have faith.  He needs to be at peace.  Comfortable in his own skin.”  He turns back to look straight at Buck.  “To do this must be his choice…”

Understatement of the year pal.  

He nods.  

“When do you choose?”

Bucky brushes a last few crumbs from off his fingers and pushes the empty plate away.  “Now.”

Across the table Steve makes not a sound, simply plucks at a loose frayed thread on the cuff of his blue jacket.

It doesn’t stand a chance.
