The client’s vision was to modernise their holiday home to bring a contemporary coastal look and feel to the entire house so that it might be enjoyed by their family and others looking for a sea side escape. The exisiting home was in need of an update as the dark walls, heavy curtains and stark white tiled floors made the home feel cold and clinical. To create a fresh and modern feel a neutral colour palette was introduced. The walls were painted in Dulux Quarter Lexicon and new natural coloured sheer curtains and block outs blinds were installed to soften the space. All new furniture and decor was purchased for the home, using materials and colours that tied in with the style such as timber, rattan, jute and linen to create a relaxed and welcoming environment. The end result is a relaxing and modern coastal retreat that reflects their interior style and the beach side location of the home.

House 2 in a dual dwelling development in Koala Park where the site was subdivided for the two new dwellings. On a 332sqm North aspect site the dwelling was designed to allow a front North aspect pool courtyard with direct views to Burleigh Heads Ridgeline. The design was reflective of the South East Queensland Sub Tropical climate with lower floor living areas open to external entertaining decks, the pool courtyard and landscape. Large eave overhangs & oversized gutters with a flatter pitch hip roof & eaves boxed down to window heads indicative of Tropical Modernist Architecture. Planning to the Ground Floor was programmed with all public zones of living, dining, kitchen & a flexible guest bed that could transition to a kid’s rumpus adjacent to the pool if needed. These public zones all wrap the central landscaped courtyard & external entertaining areas. The first floor was programmed with private zones of 3 additional bedrooms & a retreat, kids spill out zone. A defining element was the arched vertical batten aluminium screen acting as a skirt to the deck areas & extending as a balustrade over that act as a colonnade to thicken the façade & help with cooling interior living spaces. The transparency of the screen allows filtered light & cross ventilation to enter the internal spaces. The arched openings soften the form of the building & allow a visual to the landscaped courtyard from within. Built by Paul & the team at PJH Constructions. Photos by Kristian Van Der Beek. KvdB
