On Sydney’s Northern Beaches, this transformative project responds perfectly to its stunning clifftop setting, where panoramic views stretch from Lion Island to Pittwater and Palm Beach Ocean Pool.
A substantial house is being reimagined with respect to the Palm Beach heritage palette, while updating it with a global eye. Rising from the steep site, evoking a breezy Caribbean villa, its lofty pavilions of shiplap and stone are set around an infinity pool, projecting out into the horizon.
Utilising the site topography, a secondary dwelling sits under the main house, nestling into the gardens below. Sustainable design includes double glazed windows that maximise light and airflow while reducing heat load, solar power generation with battery storage and rainwater harvesting – all reducing resource and energy consumption.
