Castaway's Beach House

2002

Castaway’s House is a coastal weekender of the “quintessential shack” genus.

The heart of the house is a two storey void over the external deck. The living zones are clustered around the void, sheltering it from the south-easterly wind, the western sun, and the neighbours. A series of stacking doors, windows and walls open onto and over the deck, to create a single unified space, or provide the versatility to close down into distinct rooms.
