Not a huge home. A huge feeling.For Hannah Sands & family · Sunshine Coast · Private proposal
“A home should make space for every version of family life.”
Lar Rosa is the beginning of a generous, deeply personal homestead: a place to gather, make, learn, work, slow down and welcome family close.
The design brings together the warmth of clay and natural materials with expressive colour, soft curves, layered texture and a strong connection to the garden. It is a big vision, and the plan should feel like it belongs to you.
The Barn Haus vision
01 · Mood & material
Expressive, grounded, unmistakably yours.
These individual images are drawn from the inspiration boards and arranged to show the feeling behind Lar Rosa: warm clay, rich colour, tactile finishes, playful curves and spaces that invite people to stay.
A first mood study—not a schedule of final selections. Materials, colours and details are refined together through design.

02 · Current work
Design ideas, then the details that bring them home.
Project Seven's clear separation between design work and procurement now guides this space. Each project will have a visual preview, its location and a direct link to the working document.

03 · The home & homestead
A small world of its own.
On approximately ten acres, Lar Rosa is imagined as a connected family place with distinct settings for gathering, making, learning, retreat and outdoor life.
02
Hannah’s creative studio
A separate, purpose-designed studio for design work, content creation and the ideas behind We Are Creator Academy. A place to think, make and host creative work.
03
Mum’s one-bedroom retreat
A semi-detached, self-contained studio home for Hannah’s mum, connected to the main residence by a considered hallway—close to family while still offering independence and privacy.
04
Learning & making
Flexible space for homeschooling, art, pottery and shared projects, with practical storage and room for changing interests as the family grows.
05
Life beyond the walls
Gardens, orchard, chickens, paddocks and a pool create a daily connection to the land. Solar, water capture and other sustainability ideas can be explored against the actual site.

- Consultant appointments and technical inputs are coordinated as the design develops.
- Product costs, freight, customs, insurance and local installation are separate from Barn Haus consultancy fees and confirmed before orders are placed.
- Final room layouts, quantities and selections are documented against the agreed plans and allowances.
