DUNE HOUSE

摘要

This is a conceptually bold project that is also well detailed and constructed. An open-plan living space hunkered into its land is topped by four tent-like bedrooms above. Architecturally, the roof form plays on the local vernacular gables and sheds, but is also an exploration in geometry.A beach holiday is about being with friends and family and connected to nature. The living room is a big, open-plan space with sliding doors in three corners onto sunken external areas set into the grassy dunes, protected from the wind. The four bedrooms above, likened by the architect to sleeping in attic rooms on holidays, are playful, evoking exciting spaces under canvas. These rooms maintain their links to the landscape with stunning views framed by both picture and smaller windows.
