Corner House with a Dramatic View to The Ocean

Corner house, designed and built within and over the remnants of the old building and on top of an original geomorphic limestone outcrop that characterizes Fremantle to provide a new home that looks much like it has always belonged.

The scale, materiality and unpretentious built form all speak to its context and a deep consideration of the site’s prospect and potential. On entering, you are simultaneously aware of the external, but protected by a welcoming courtyard space from which the internal layout of the home surrounds and encompasses it. There is a familiarity, warmth and earthiness about the materials used and the inwardness of the planning is happily contrasted with a dramatic view to the ocean from a corner picture window and an equally captivating rooftop “lantern” terrace perched above.
