Beach House | Grant Mears
Sydney / Australia / 2015
A classic beach cottage of Pittwater was being crowded in by its neighbours’ developments. The existing house was raised to create a new lower floor and allow Pittwater views from the interior. A new addition screened off a driveway and faces north, creating a new bush courtyard and entry path.
