A quiet coastal retreat defined by verandas, native planting and ocean light.
Designed for a multigenerational family, House by the Bay places shared living spaces along a protected garden court while private rooms face filtered ocean views.
Pale stone, lime plaster and weather-resistant timber create a robust coastal palette. The long roof profile protects openings from driving rain and harsh summer sun.
Living with the coast
Native grasses stabilise the landscape while rainwater is collected for irrigation. Open-air corridors allow the house to operate naturally for much of the year.
