In the beloved beachside enclave of Sydney renowned for its iconic beach, ocean pool and coastal parks, proudly sits a house on a former quarry site. Sculpted spaces are seamlessly carved, sliced, indented, and polished as though birthed from the very terrain it rests upon.
In today's fast-paced world, the essence of retreat is often overshadowed by a barrage of notifications, deadlines, and urban hustle. But for those yearning for a genuine break, where natural splendour meets meticulous design, The Point in Tasmania emerges as the quintessential sanctuary.
In the majestic foothills of the Victorian Alps, where the expanse of Taungurung Country unfolds, the Delatite Cellar Door has etched its mark. It blends the elegance of contemporary design with the rustic beauty of the natural landscape.
Amidst the sweeping panoramic vistas of Rushcutters Bay, the Dream Weaver penthouse rises as a luminous symbol of opulence and personal expression. YSG Studio transformed the space into an escapist wonderland tailored for discerning empty nesters.
In the idyllic Sydney suburb of Castlecrag, an original bungalow once sat at odds with its surroundings. It was a discordant note amidst the harmonious architecture designed by the likes of Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahoney Griffin.
When one thinks of residential architecture in Australia, thoughts may stray to familiar styles marked by pitched roofs, front verandas, and a recognisable domesticity. Yet in Melbourne's east, the Gottlieb House by Wood Marsh stands as a striking departure from convention.

Set in a historic arts and crafts neighbourhood, the project respectfully preserves the aesthetic streetscape while infusing a refreshing modernity into the rear extension.
Embraced by the coveted real estate of the Mornington Peninsula, the Portsea Surf Shack is more than a home to a close-knit family of three and their loyal canine companions; it's a lifestyle.
