COASTAL LIVING / A PERSONAL RESPONSE

A home that belongs to the coast.

01 / THE WAY IT LIVES

Room for life.
Space for the landscape.

Three wings separate the main suite, shared living spaces and guest accommodation. North-facing glazing welcomes winter warmth while the home opens south towards the ocean. Double glazing, mesh awnings, solar power and greywater separation support everyday comfort.

02 / MATERIAL & MEMORY

A personal connection
to place.

Stone from the client’s farm and reclaimed Esperance Jetty timber bring personal history to the architecture. Low rooflines follow the hillside, while the lap pool draws the eye towards the horizon.
