A Liveable Work Of Art By Mary Ellen Hudson Architects, A Synthesis Of Light And Movement
Conceived as a liveable work of art, this architectural masterwork by Mary Ellen Hudson Architects has been crafted to integrate with its coastal setting with a robust palette of materials and organic form. The design philosophy was to carve spaces that allowed for light and movement through sculptural curves and a double-height glass void with views over the ocean to Wedding Cake Island and the coastline a breathtaking backdrop to the master suite. Delivering a sense of privacy and retreat, a seamless fusion of cutting-edge design and sustainable architecture ensures the home treads lightly on the environment with a 4.5kW solar power system, hydronic floor heating, rainwater harvesting and passive solar principles maximising cross-flow and ocean breezes. Materials are raw and resilient with repurposed sandstone salvaged from the site, concrete and timber offset by lush succulent gardens with a 9m pool taking centre stage in the sunny landscaped backyard. The design is inspirational and the setting unbeatable just 300m to Clovelly Beach and a short stroll to idyllic marine parkland and the coast walk.
