\"Hayashi\" House is a joint interpretation of the old Japanese and Aussie bush pole house traditions. \"We want BUSH LIFE for our young family and a boudoir with a valley view\". \"Hayashi\" is the embodiment of two spirits: male and female. \"Hayashi\" has solid poles, stone, slab and mud brick walls anchoring him to the ground and a concave corrugated roof winging her lightly above the earth. \"Hayashi\" at the head of a secluded valley at the edge of the Strathbogie ranges is owned as a 1/8th share in a 25-year-old cooperative.\"Hayashi\" is a Phoenix risen: destroyed by fire in 1990, her roof a ruin, his bush poles charred at least in part, some of his stonework exfoliated,and some of his mudbrick still standing fired hard. A bigger and better reincarnation began in 1993. Design archeologically to save the sound parts;…. armatures were made for the pole tops, extending them to their original height. Architect and Sculptor Owner Builder share a common heritage and a creation experience of the Benalla terracotta mural amphitheatre. \"Hayashi\" House is a celebration of the heritage, beliefs and persistence of Shaun & Nobuko, their Co-op, friends and family who support them. Much has been designed along the way; lots of bugs designed out. Arise \"Hayashi\" oh son and daughter of Samurai and Ned Kelly!
