Baker House
By Bespoke Constructions
Architecturally designed beach house at Point Lookout on Stradbroke Island.
The intent for Baker Boys Beach House was to be reminiscent of the beach shack vernacular, as it was very typical for the Island in the 60s to 90s. Exploring the qualities of long term camping, this project intends to overcome the limitations of conventional houses. Sleeping and service facilities are confined in so-called ‘pods’ which are placed beside a central area, which is covered by a light roof. Like camping, this arrangement provides an experience more similar to a shelter, than spending the day inside a house.
Located on a very steep slope, the back of the house is anchored to the ground, where it is well connected to the adjoining bushland reserve. The other end of the structure is cantilevered to take full advantage of the sweeping views while providing covered space for car parking and storage facilities.
