Mollymook Beach House / Jost Architects
The design was inspired by the mid-century vernacular of not only the original part of the house but nearby beach houses as well, with their distinctive skillion roofs and simple but robust materials.

Looking to the future, the clients required a house capable of a multi-generational family dynamic including their teenage children, Timba the dog and older parents who frequently visit from overseas but will eventually join them permanently.
The project involved an existing double fronted Victorian house with a council Heritage Overlay. The previous 1980s extension to the rear was removed with a clean break between the original area of house and the extension.
