Sorrento Beach House.

JOST Architects presents the Sorrento Beach House, a stunning blend of Scandinavian and mid-century modern influences, designed to be both a holiday retreat and a permanent residence in the heart of Sorrento. The brief was to create a "super-stylish and cool" home with seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining areas, a second-story with panoramic views, a separate bungalow for the clients' teenage children, and a solar-heated pool.

This luxury home features a striking kitchen, master suite, and study area/guest bedroom on the ground floor, while the upper level houses two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a second living area that opens to a terrace. The design includes passive thermal control, with cross ventilation and strategic orientation of glass to optimize natural light and energy efficiency.

With a focus on privacy, security, and a darker, moodier interior palette of timber, stone, and glass, the Sorrento Beach House is a true architectural gem that embodies the relaxed coastal lifestyle of Sorrento. Collaborating with interior designer Simone Haag and builder Ryan Waterson, JOST Architects has created a home that not only meets the clients' exacting requirements but also stands as a timeless piece of design in the Luxury Homes category.
