Sunbeat Studio x Config.
Set within the coastal context of Wonthaggi, this double storey residence adopts a traditional exterior language that responds sensitively to its surroundings. Positioned on a generous site alongside an existing dwelling, the design carefully balances new and old, ensuring a cohesive relationship while maintaining a distinct identity.
Drawing from the character of nearby surf shacks and weatherboard homes, the exterior presents a familiar and understated coastal presence that blends naturally into the streetscape. Inside, the home shifts to a more contemporary expression, with refined finishes and expansive, voluminous ceilings that create a sense of openness and light.
Designed for a retiring couple seeking to downsize, the home offers a balance of timeless appeal and modern comfort, delivering an elegant yet relaxed coastal retreat.
