[1] St Andrews Beach House is a three-bedroom, two-story structure that is elevated to engage with the views over the ocean.

[2][3] The structure is designed to withstand punishing summer sun as well as the gale-force winter winds whipping across the beach front elevation.

The plan consists of two distinct elements: a communal kitchen/meals/living space and a bedroom block.

The crossover for the route takes occupants through the heart of the principal living room which, is situated towards the west end.

The open plan also creates an ambiguous relationship of the interior and exterior of the house.
