A beach house on the Coromandel, designed for an adventurous multi-generational family who has enjoyed family holidays in this small beach village in the Coromandel for generations.

The bedroom zone is upstairs, with the main bedroom area another half level up again, a space to retreat to that is designed to be both entirely breathtaking and serene at the same time.

Living areas extend across the beach side of the site and enjoy large sliding doors to connect directly to the beach as well as to the courtyard - a pavilion-like space adaptable to the conditions. A small sunken and cosy nook is stepped down and into from the courtyard area creating a cosy refuge, a retreat from the hub, and has a sneaky climbing wall up to a secret door to bedrooms above.

The bach both nestles into and steps up and over the undulating dunes creating varying zones of privacy, shelter, shade, connection to the dunes and expansive beach views.
