About the winning project
The scope of works for the Ocean St residences was to develop and deliver a beachside townhouse complex featuring basement construction, reinforced concrete suspended slabs, prominent metalwork, and timber elements. The plan was to utilise high-end materials and finishes, timber framing and locally sourced veneer clad joinery for aesthetic appeal and functionality. The architecture celebrates the local heritage through a modern interpretation. Grand in scale and stature the homes carefully integrate into the surrounding environment with wooden screening and cladding thoughtfully applied indoors and out. Handcrafted sandstone brickwork forms a podium for balcony arbours and angled articulations, providing a canvas for shadows to draw as the sun moves across the sky.
