Leigh Road House / Belinda George Architects
This special site with panoramic coastal views towards Te Kohuroa (Matheson Bay) and quintessential rural outlook to Matakana Hill demanded a typology which sits comfortably in both settings.

BlackCliff House / McLeod Bovell
The BlackCliff House is situated on Canada’s west coast, perched on a granite rock rising 40 meters above the shoreline below. This location is a geographical “half-way” point for a dispersed family who are intermittently working and living on multiple continents.
Kohala Coast Residence / de Reus Architects
Situated alongside a lava flow dating from 1801 on the leeward coast of Hawaii, this 10,361-square-foot residence was designed as a modern interpretation of indigenous island architecture
Mediterranean Retreat House on the Island of Menorca
This Mediterranean Retreat House is about 450 square meters, it is located in the island of Menorca and it has three floors to suit the steep topography of the land and to promote the joy of the wonderful views from most of the spaces of the house.
Old Quarry House / Gray Organschi Architecture
Reconstructed, refitted, reprogrammed… phoenix-like in its new life as a home for a family with college age children, the Old Quarry House occupies a glorious coastal site
Island View Cottage / Whitten Architects
Twenty years ago, Whitten Architects designed a home for a family on a 100-acre coastal farm in the town of Yarmouth. In 2017, we returned to the site to design a cottage for the next generation of the same family. Our client sought a home she could enjoy and share with guests, her two adult children and their adult friends, and five black Labs.
Sandy Point House / Kennedy Nolan
Perched on the coastal dunes of eastern Victoria, this is a holiday house for a family who have a long association with the modest beachside hamlet of Sandy Point. Almost three hours from Melbourne, this house is designed not so much for weekends as for extended stays – in both summer and winter.
Otago Bay House / Topology Studio
Located on a lazy bend of the Derwent River in Hobart, this house accentuates the drama of living on the water’s edge. Connections with the landscape oscillate between enclosure and embrace. A courtyard, a colonnade, ledges and terraces soften the distinction between house and landscape with a series of steps and paths.
Edgemont Family Home Completely Clad in Black Metal
The concept for this Edgemont Family Home was inspired by the surrounding coastal rainforest and the homeowners love for mid-century design. To enter the house you are brought down several steps, through the soft pink front door, into the main floor of the home.
