A Sydney Beach House Makes the Most of its Tiny Site

 architecture

Tony Owen Architects have designed a compact family home close to Tamarama beach in Sydney, Australia.

There was already a lush tropical garden neglected at the rear of the older house – now this is the focal point of the new Kerr House.

By focusing the new space so that it opens onto the garden as a large outdoor room they create an extension of the living area.

Likewise, from the garden the space flows effortlessly, and dinner guests are easily supplied from the nearby kitchen.

The simple ladder style stair barely interrupts the all white living space.

The kitchen is the ultimate in high gloss all-white, from ceiling to floor.

Three bedrooms and a family room are housed upstairs.

A simple elegant tub is set above wooden slats providing an attractive yet practical no-slip surface.

Narrow shutters echo the distinctive very narrow strip cladding.

Over time, these untreated extenal timber battens will weathered for a sea-side look, marrying the new house to its site.
