Ideally located on a corner block in the coastal town of Barwon Heads, Bower Architecture was provided the opportunity to create a spacious and private beach villa that met the client’s brief for a home ingrained with the feeling of barefoot, casual luxury.

Having been referred from a previous Bower client, the owners of the Barwon Heads property were familiar with the style of work the Melbourne architectural firm produce and shared a similar appreciation for quality design.

“The client came to us wanting a spacious and elegant beach villa for themselves and their guests,” says project architect Anna Dutton. “The words the client used in the initial briefing were a feeling of ‘minimal fuss’ and ‘a barefoot, casual luxury’.”
