Text description provided by the architects. Burnt Earth Beach House replaces a dilapidated beach shack at the end of its operational life in the coastal town of Anglesea in Victoria. It's a multi-generational home that utilizes terracotta in two primary forms - through the exterior brickwork, and internally to line walls and floors and joinery elements. Having owned the property for several years, a deep and specific understanding of who the house was for and how it would be used gave the conceptual design true form. The established Eucalypt to the north of the site provided a focal point for the arrangement of the primary living spaces.
