Seagull Avenue Residence

  • Seagull Avenue Residence was a reimagined Beach House for clients whose own parents built the original Beach House on the site at Nobby Beach in the 1940’s. Back when they visited from Brisbane for Beach Holidays and had to forge their own track to the beach from the site being one of the first dwellings in the area

  • The character of the design was a reflection and reinterpretation of the original beach house dwelling in materiality and detailing
  • Broken down batten features allow light and breezes to penetrate whilst providing filtered screening to the elements and privacy to adjoining higher density developments

  • Internal courtyard spaces were positioned on the entry axis which also opens each side to function as an external breezeway two storey void penetrating the site, also allowing connectivity to the streetscape and community
  • The outcome has allowed the next generation to also enjoy the site as a treasured Holiday Beach House destination with the capacity to now cater for extended family and honour the original build
  • Built by Pat at Firestone Constructions

Habitat was back on deck last week for what is sha Habitat was back on deck last week for what is shaping up for a massive 2022. Habitat is keeping it’s original design philosophies simple this year and sticking to it’s beliefs on sub tropical design. Buildings with overhangs!…or thickened facades, screening to West facades. All that Xmas rain just reinforced how important those elements are for a building to function and be comfortable to live in. That’s the aim. Pretty Instagram pictures don’t always make for a functional building in this climate. A big shout out to Ricardo and his team @projects_and_designs_engineers  for his Paradise Waters Residence making it through to the National final for the National Excellence in Building Construction Awards in Cairns for renovations up to $1mill. 🙌 Great achievement and we wish him all the best for a National win! For us this was an exercise in a Modernist/Minimalist design and converting that philosophy into something that is liveable in a South East Qld climate. 📸 @kristian_van_der_beek

The team are all refreshed and ready to tackle all the design challenges ahead. The break consisted of everything from Cyclone surfs, van road trips to Covid isolations. Fun times.
