The owners of this spectacular contemporary custom home on the Sunshine Coast wanted an expansive residence with multiple living spaces, a home that offered somewhere for each family member to retreat and entertain in privacy whilst taking full advantage of its stunning canal-side location.

With an initial desire to extend the home over two building sites, the project underwent a serious setback when they were unable to secure the neighbouring lot. Thanks however to the exceptional skills of designer Chris Clout, the home was delivered over three levels in an inspired design which feels open throughout and maintains a connection with the water at every level.

Whilst having strong, angular lines of an ultra-contemporary home, the home has a warm and inviting ambience. This is largely due to the use of rich feature timbers used externally as architectural detailing and privacy screening and internally as wall and ceiling cladding which adds an Eastern aesthetic to the home. Internal voids and extensive glazing have been used with striking effect, creating the open, resort-style feel and ensuring of water views from every possible angle.

Ando style concrete walls and polished concrete floors lay the foundation for the cool industrial look which has been further enhanced through an extensive use of aged timber and steel. Expansive open-plan spaces and upper-level voids allow the stunning water views to be maximised via dramatic floor to ceiling glazing whilst a clever division of space is achieved through varying ceiling heights and other architectural features including a spectacular spiral staircase at the centre of the living space that has been encased in steel bars, creating a striking focal point. In the bathroom slick stack bond tiling and fire hydrant dial taps in an antique look finish continue the industrial aesthetic. An alfresco kitchen on the expansive terrace overlooking the resort style pool and spa, completes everything you need for luxury modern living With years of experience behind him, Chris Clout is well acquainted with the building industry specialising in luxury resort-style custom homes.
