This site is long and slender, with the primary view to the sea towards the eastern (skinny end) of the site. Maximising the view was a priority for these clients. So was quite a large space requirement of 315 m2 floor area or so. Other determinants of the site were, that large areas of site needed to be taken up by wastewater distribution fields and a large stormwater soakpit. The orientation of this long, skinny site lent itself to a floor plan that was spread out along the site, in a long ‘U’ shape to encapsulate a more sheltered courtyard area adjacent to the ground floor hall and rumpus room. With 2 storeys only at the beach end of the house to maximise views. Living areas and a massive deck at first floor level with a large louvred roof, will allow for multiple uses of the living/deck space relationship, ie outdoor dining or just lounging around on outdoor furniture taking in the view, in or out of the sun, rain or shine. The master bedroom downstairs and primary guest bedroom adjacent will also get some nice sea views. With the majority of the other bedrooms down at the other ‘kids’ end of the house adjacent to the Rumpus room and courtyard. Photo Credit: Ken Nguyen

“We were looking for someone to design a scheme involving the subdivision of our property, a new house for us and another house on the property, for us to sell. Scott came highly recommended by local people in the industry, as he has been involved with this type of development before. This turned out to be a godsend as we found that it takes an enormous amount of knowledge to navigate the Council’s maze of rules and regulations. Scott also has a valuable network of engineers and consultants at hand, to work in conjunction with him, to keep the project moving. Because of the relationship Scott has with them, he is able to get prompt action and responses from them. Scott also likes to work at a fast pace, so nothing takes too long! In my experience, this is not the norm for most project managers! We are very excited by the design that Scott has come up with for us. After our initial discussions he came back with a design that was so right that it basically never changed. It did evolve with minor tweaks and further input from both us and Scott, but they were refinements only. We felt very engaged with Scott during the whole design process and now look forward to continuing that relationship as we commence the build. We would highly recommend Scott for anyone wanting to build either their dream home or a development project. He is creative, engaging and totally committed to your project.”
