Through a series of architectural interventions, the space unfolds as distinct volumes, reflecting the experience of compression and release. The initial space, defined by a lower ceiling creates a sense of comfort and welcome—a grounding, peaceful experience. This leads into a double-height space, where a relaxed openness embraces an understated sense of scale.

Creating a meaningful dialogue with context, the materiality captures the essence of Byron Bay’s iconic casual seaside aesthetic. Acknowledging the proximity to sand and sea, the materials draw on those natural tones and textures to subtly influence the space. Echoing tonal shifts in sand, a rough-textured travertine is used for the flooring, paired with natural feature stone, handmade ceramic tiles, and hand-applied paint finish subtly textured with sand. These are paired with recycled native Australian timbers, which reference the region’s historic timber industry.
