A beach house for a small family. Our design approach was to conduct a simple study of geometry. A series of cubic volumes form the building, and are broken down on the façade in to triangles by alternating glass and solid timber walls.

Internally, the resulting spaces are often surprising, particularly in the living space, the only room where the full height of a ‘cube’ is revealed. Here sunlight filters through the triangular windows, casting beautiful geometric shadows on the timber floor.
