  • Located in Manly, this modern house emphasises casual beachside living through a strong connection to the external environment. Sitting in one of the suburb’s leafiest streets, the modern house enjoys optimal views to the surrounding areas, maximising the cross-flow of natural breezes from its elevated position.
    The modern house's material palette draws inspiration from the history of the surrounding area, whilst raw materials provide a contemporary architectural form, blurring the lines between casual and formal life. A long horizontal concrete form with chamfered edges is clad in breeze-admitting passive timber shading devices and bands of glazing that invite views of the carefully curated greenery.
    Responding to its coastal location, this modern house is defined by a timber-lined ceiling extending to the soffit and polished concrete floors, creating a series of seamless spaces flowing onto each other, from open to closed, informal to formal, refined and robust all at the same time. Open-plan living spaces spill out to the outdoor living and pool areas on the ground floor, blurring the line between outside and inside, emphasising the garden outlook, natural light-filled spaces and the modern house's connection to its environment.
    A large oversized island bench is the meeting point of the modern home, with streamlined kitchen and living room joinery connecting the living spaces. Ancillary spaces are tucked away into the core of the building, allowing maximum natural light to the living spaces. As a modern house, the concrete stair is a sculptural presence that sweeps upwards, binding the living spaces to the bedrooms and bathrooms on level one, where the external timber screens add ventilation and ever-changing shadows within. In the basement, a wine cellar, laundry, utility and theatre room provide technical support to the rest of the modern house.

    What I love is that the shots let the natural light speak for itself. Shadows are our friend, not to be scared of. A lot of real estate videos tend to be overly bright, blown windows just to show what the house does not look like. Cheer Squad produces some extremely juicy content! Beautiful cinematography.

    I appreciate how the mass of the house is reduced by the projecting "eaves" that create inset volumes and provide shade as well. Two big achievements. Nice blowing curtain effect (reminds me of The Delano Hotel in Miami). Overall a good neighbor and a good home - for two families.

    This build was actually quite a tumultuous one amongst the local community, where the modern style doesn't fit with the localised landscape. People were quite upset when the council approved the plans as they ended up knocking down a house that was over 100 years old (this is quite old for Australian buildings). The design could have incorporated the old house rather than knocking it down and rebuilding it from the ground. As a student studying architecture myself, I'm quite disheartened that there was no consideration towards respecting or maintaining local heritage.

    These seem to be beautiful spaces. However, the presentation was a little bit jarring. Jumping around from inside to outside, areal shots to indoors, floor to ceiling, and never giving us a regular tour: outside entrance through the front door, and through the spaces. Without that, this video is just a collection of pretty images that we pan through.
