Beach House, Collaroy
Completed: 2015
Paradise on the beach...
Backing directly onto Fisherman's Beach, this brand new home has all the character of a traditional timber beach house. Constructed of concrete and brick under its beautiful timber weatherboard skin - it won't wash away in a storm.
Being a battle-axe shaped block, there is no street frontage, but rather a facade facing east that enjoys spectacular views being just a few steps from the sand. There's no more exciting a place to be when the weather turns a bit angry - standing on the deck overlooking the ocean is just captivating.
My clients wanted something in timber that was a bit quirky in a beach house sort of way, with big entertaining decks and holiday house features. Set into the hill a bit allowed us to get three storeys and storage for all the board, boats, bikes and gym equipment you could want.
"Perfect design for the block...we made it built to last."
- Builder John Aiello

Homes are our Specialty.
I'm an architect that loves homes. Homes are my passion and where we've specialised for the last 20 years in Sydney. I don't have a style, I don't need one, because it's not about me, it's all about you, your family, your dreams and your home.
I have a small professional team and access to some of the best builders in Sydney. Together we know how to get a project through DA or Complying Development or both.
Our passion is to create a home our clients love, right down to the interior fit-out, lighting, colours and materials. Bespoke and individual, stylish and classic, or just the way you want it.
We listen to what you want so that your home is designed to suit your life.
See your vision come alive early in the process with our detailed 3D design modelling. When our clients can explore their home on a computer or tablet, we find our clients can move the process forward more quickly and with greater confidence.
To better manage your budget, we built an online building cost calculator, which anyone can use. It's detailed but quick and straightforward and is a great way to start the design process and update the costing as you go.
