PR House is a unique beach home with a bold architectural form and strong textures, to replace a dilapidated but loved 1960s beach shack. To maintain a ‘shack’ feel, the new design uses natural, hardy and 


low maintenance materials. Two dominant double-height insitu concrete walls have a textural experience that changes with the path of the sun throughout the day, both internally and externally. Natural timber decking and external cladding to the front and rear facades softens the concrete and the raw finish white mahogany will silver over time depending on the exposure to sun and rain. Internally, the open plan and finishes reflects the owners’ passion for mid century design; freeform sandstone, extensive oak joinery and custom details compliment their large vintage furniture collection. An oversized timber pivot door acts as a ‘gate’ to the main entrance, indicating that the owners are home or concealing the entry entirely.
