Plateau Project

Perched above an ancient forest of thousand-year-old Angophora trees with views over Pittwater, Plateau Project embodies the natural tones and materiality of the land that surrounds it. A simple internal palate of microcement and raw concrete draw warmth and reflect light. A wandering wall greets you as you enter, leading quietly around a deep curve to a dramatic reveal of soaring ceilings and exposed rafters. A raked ceiling delivers expansive views over bushland out to the water.
The house plays with shape and volume. Curves and lines, confinement and expanse collaborate to create a bold statement of opposites whilst creating cohesion and fluidity at the same time.
Residing in a BAL-FZ flame zone, the home has been built with non-combustible materials, fit with bushfire shutters as well as steel frames and windows. Bespoke aerated concrete features throughout the design from bathroom tiling to a custom cast dining table which seats 10. Vein-cut travertine benchtops rest atop scalloped concrete detailing in the kitchen and breakfast nook.
Plateau Project is punctuated by materials and angles creating moments – solid and soft, bold and light.

Our philosophy with Architecture and Interior Design revolves around the ideologies of simplicity, balance, scale & proportion and a connection to landscape.
Architecture
Our practice thrives on innovation, pushing boundaries and dreaming up spaces yet to be seen.
