Gordons Bay House banner

The Project is divided into 3 main parts: a 2-storey bedroom volume and a 3-storey living/principal suite volume, with a connecting curved roof acting as a shelter internal courtyard. The offset of volumes allows views over Gordon Bay from most rooms. The ‘internal’ courtyard forms the circulation space and allows northern sun and ventilation into the south-facing building. The material and colour palette is simple and robust with off-form concrete benchtops and benches, limestone floors, white walls and joinery, and the corrugated metal curved roof. Splashes of colour come in from the natural environment, the bay below and the clients’ artworks.

About the
Professional

RAAarchitects is a design oriented architectural practice focused on delivering high quality residential & commercial projects . Our aim is to produce architecture that has both a good functional layout and simple elegant form. This design approach is fundamental to every decision along the construction process.

Our projects are designed and documented using ArchiCAD in 3D. This enables clients to fly through the 3D model with us and receive regular 3D updates of the project to view on their computer or mobile devices. With this system we are able to thoroughly coordinate consultant input as they update and ensure no drawing conflict.

Our primary focus in design is created by a strong desire to benefit more people through architecture and it is this goal which drives us to produce solutions most sensible to every project. Combined with successive processes of renew, rethink, reinvent, RAAA delivers a unique and value-added outcome to every project.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
