The client's brief was to create a warm and cosy beach house that doubles as an entertainer's paradise. Situated on the Lorne hillside, the house offers panoramic bay views while respecting neighbouring properties.

Natural materials like stone, concrete, and timber are prominent throughout the house, creating a warm contrast with the white walls and ensuring a strong connection with the exterior.
