Our clients purchased a late 1970?s modernist brick beach house in Noosa, Australia for a subtropical retreat from the cool Victorian climate. The house was located on a wonderful site that backed onto the Noosa National Park and surfing beaches. The existing dark brown brick residence, although well constructed at the time, had visually dated quite badly and did not take best advantage of the amazing site that backed onto a subtropical rainforest. The owners brief was to modernise the house while retaining as much of the existing building structure as possible.
