THE RETREAT - DESIGN BRIEF

Design Statement
The major objective of the design is to uphold the original architectural intent, while
enhancing the lived experience of the current clients. The proposed additions will celebrate
the existing 'beach house style' and the experience of 'camping' on the dunes and cater for
this beach front lifestyle.

Design Proposal Explanation
The external additions being proposed are two aluminium privacy screens for the existing
windows on level 1 and a small powder room on level 1. The additions generally do not
provide an increase in internal GFA with the exception of a small powder room 'pop out' on the
upper floor. They will, however, provide the client and neighbouring pavilions with additional
privacy for their living spaces. Aesthetically, the design will align with the colour study
undertaken (see below) and increase the level of privacy (as per design report). The new
basement storage will be located under the building and hidden behind the existing timber
battens. Thw new windows will match the existing windows. The new sliding door (lcoated on
the beach side) will provide a greater access to the deck and increase the view.
