Palm Beach Additions
-
These additions were to an existing single storey standard brick veneer bungalow. The scope of work stripped the existing back to floor slab & minimal lower floor stud walls, extending to add space & include a first floor addition.
-
The planning was reworked to open out the ground floor plan to the site context, yard & climate with new bedrooms & private zones to the upper floor.
-
The design detailing was to introduce light & breeze & capitalise on the seaside site context. Raked ceilings with exposed rafters to the living areas & upper floor bedrooms with a standard pitched gable roof protruding through the flat main roof acting to catch these natural elements.
- The material selection & detailing was to reflect the coastal environment with hardy materials requiring minimal maintenance, sun shading devices & batten screens to allow breeze.
