Clean, modern and artistic this homeof a professional couple and their 2 children on Austinmer Beach is ideal for an Australian escape. Filled with air, the large open spaces can give you the illusion that you are floating above the water. The style of this home is an ultra-modern, architecturally designed, environmentally sensitive four-bedroom family home inspired by its lush, bush-meets-beach setting and the organic form of Jørn Utzon’s iconic Sydney Opera House. The house enjoys expansive views of Austinmer Beach. Sustainably produced blackbutt timber was used to frame and clad the home. In the Living room an MDF Italia ‘Mate’ sofa is flanked by side tables made from timber reclaimed from the Queensland floods. At the hallway a recycled brick wall runs the length of the downstairs space and contains a series of cubbyholes used for display. At the formal lounge area an Easton Pearson rug from Designer Rugs adds warmth to the concrete floor. Below the bedroom balcony, trees and plants mirror the lush vegetation of the Illawarra Escarpment behind.
