nestled behind a wall of cypress trees, this contemporary home in australia by inarc features a neat rectilinear plan which has effectively divided its site into equal parts of house and garden. situated on the edge of a coastal golf course, the single-storey holiday home uses an understated and neutral material palette to bring out the detailing and straight lines of the structure.

the residence wraps around a courtyard where the neatly paneled decking mimics the façade clad in silver stained blackbutt timber. the journey through the home unfolds as a disciplined sequence, with passageways facing out towards the greenery and unfolding living spaces flooded with natural light. a single living, dining/kitchen space, 2 bedrooms, a sitting room and a double garage make up the main areas which display a use of grey cement render, steel and oak floor boards.
