A pair of bespoke modern coastal homes in Miami, completed in 2024, featuring striking black and white facades and seamless integration through timber-look aluminium battens, designed by Lath Group.
Albion Ave is a pair of bespoke modern coastal homes located in the heart of Queensland’s Gold Coast. Architecturally designed and artfully crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these luxury dwellings create a stunning visual thanks to the striking contrast of their black and white facades. Distinctly different in shape and colour, the two homes designs - that are positioned side by side - are seamlessly integrated thanks to the chosen timber-look aluminium battens and slats that are splayed across the facade and garages.

Izaac Lathouras, Director at Lath Group who developed the properties, selected DECO products and finishes across the project because of their effortless maintenance and varied usability.
“We chose the DecoWood® finish because it met all our project needs, providing architectural detail without the high maintenance of real timber. The extensive timber-look range allowed us to achieve a cohesive finish that softened and unified our contrasting facades”
Key features of the properties include:
- Seamless Integration: The installation of DecoBatten® and DecoSlat® paired with a DecoWood® finish, significantly enhances the home’s architectural details. The battens were used across the façade and gates, and slats across the garage doors, to create a cohesive visual appeal across both homes as well as complementing the coastal location. The timber-look aluminium seamlessly integrated with the natural elements, whilst also providing a sophisticated and unified exterior design across the two properties.
- Durable Sophistication: Ideal for the demanding coastal environment, the marine grade and UV-resistant DecoWood® finish offer a low-maintenance solution that withstands the elements while maintaining a refined, elegant appearance. This durability was the perfect choice to ensure long-lasting beauty.
- Versatile Design Application: The versatility of DECO’s products allowed for its application across various elements of the project, including façade, gates and garage doors. The product’s ability to adapt to a range of applications with minimal hassle and effortless installation helped to achieve the consistent and harmonious design across both homes.
The striking modern design of these coastal dwellings is a testament to thoughtful planning and the innovative use of DecoBatten® and DecoSlat®. By seamlessly integrating these elements, the project not only achieves a stunning visual appeal but also meets the practical demands of coastal living.
