This intricate palimpsest of bricks in Adelaide is a regular view on our commute.
The Eden House is recognisable from its distinctive, round solitary window placed in the centre on the southern facade. A lack of openings was an intentional move to shield and provide privacy to its occupants from the nearby road which lies up the hill, while also providing a clue as to what lies beyond the monolithic facade.
