Lurline Bay House is a bespoke off-form concrete home with an awe-inspiring four-storey atrium, dramatic marble, sculpted curves and two pavilions capturing expansive coastal views. But it is what you do not see that makes the construction and finish so spectacular.
The first two floors anchor the house and integrate the building into the landscape and streetscape. Two double-storey split pavilions float on concrete blades, pivoted to face south-east. Large-scale glass panels deliver expansive views over the coast and ocean. Behind that facade, each room is bespoke: off-form concrete, soft curves, timber joinery, striking marble.
A dramatic four-storey atrium separates the front and back of the house and filters light deep into the floor plan, washing the off-form concrete walls with a dynamic play of light and shadow. The kitchen at the rear flows seamlessly out to the marble infinity-edge pool.
The quality of construction, the use of materials, the design challenges and the innovation are intrinsically linked. Materials are used in unique ways and combinations. Every junction is highly considered and executed.
