A sun-filled beach house designed for flexibility and liveability, featuring solar PV, passive thermal management, and an innovative internal verandah that enhances outdoor living while ensuring comfort year-round.

Designed as a flexible and sun filled beach house taking advantage of its northerly aspect, with liveability at its core.

Rainbow Beach House is solar PV is connected and is designed with passive thermal management incorporating ventricular passageways and glazing elements that move cooling airflows throughout and allow the home to ‘breathe’. In addition, minimising air leakage via well-sealed envelope, large eaves and coupled with correct insulation, improves thermal comfort in winter and high summer when artificial climate management is needed via airconditioning, with doors and windows closed.

Via bespoke battened, stackable panels lined with clear polycarbonate, an internal“verandah” can be fully opened up or closed down with full weather sealing for greater amenity provided by this additional living space. Additional outdoor living amenity is provided via the gazebo accessed through a covered walkway.

“I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Anthony Wynne-Hoelscher both as a client and a colleague on various projects in South East Queensland over the last eight years. Anthony’s approach to building design embodies a sound understanding of the design principles required to create beautiful and healthy living environments. He works collaboratively with his clients to arrive at design responses that are also energy efficient, functional and cost effective. However, it is Anthony’s understanding of form that allows him to package these requirements into elegant and distinctive buildings and spaces. The clean lined external form of the buildings that Anthony designs are only possible through a clever rationalisation of the spaces within. When confronted with difficult design challenges it is Anthony’s careful consideration of the issues and his attention to detail that inevitably produces the right response without sacrificing the essence of the building.”
