Blairgowrie Ocean Beach House

Perched on a sand dune on the ocean beach of Blairgowrie on the Mornington Peninsula, this home enjoys the views of both Bass Strait and Port Phillip.
The massive windows on the southern side of the house facing Bass Strait immerses the inhabitants in the view, giving a feeling of hovering over the dunes toward the ocean.
The material selections combines bold and robust concrete elements, which anchor the house into its surrounds and the timber cladding offsetting this by offering a softer link to the greys of the adjacent tea-tree scrub. These materials continue internally providing seamless links and enhancing the connection between inside and out.

About the
Professional
Planned Living Architects has been operating on the Mornington Peninsula for more than 30 years. We are an experienced and creative team of architects and designers highly regarded for their well-considered designs in coastal and rural areas.
We place a strong emphasis on designing buildings around people and places. Every project reflects the uniqueness of its site, function and users and is environmentally-conscious. A strong connection to the outdoors and the natural environment is integral, ‘inviting the outside in’ and vice-versa by providing seamless links encouraging fluidity and movement. We establish strong relationships with our clients, where client interaction and engagement is encouraged in the belief that it creates the most successful outcomes. Our 3D modelling software enables clients to see design concepts in the finest detail, allowing them to fully understand and participate in the project at all stages.
Planned Living Architects has built valuable personal relationships and mutual respect with consultants, contractors and staff within the council planning department which ensures a complete understanding of all relevant issues and streamlines the process of every project.
Our team at Planned Living Architects are committed to providing functional, innovative and responsive solutions for a wide range of projects, sites and budgets. The large majority of our experience has come in the form of semi-permanent residences in the coastal and rural environs of the Mornington Peninsula, yet we undertake projects in Melbourne and further afield, having completed jobs on the Great Ocean Road, the Bass Coast and interstate.
