TWO HALVES

This beachside project optimizes a suburban plot with rear laneway access, accommodating two dwellings on one lot. The living, kitchen, and dining areas face north, providing a seamless connection to the garden and sky through large openings. The dining space is strategically positioned for an integrated indoor-outdoor experience, with sliding doors opening to the entertaining area.

A curved brick entry wall, inspired by Tallows Beach bight, welcomes visitors, accompanied by a semi‐circular pool. The open front door offers a view through a window, across a feature tree, towards the outdoor entertaining space. The aesthetic, characterized by natural materials, exudes a warm minimalism—contemporary, robust, and perfect for family beachside living.
