Coogee Residence

X.PACE Design Group

Situated on a unique site bordered on two sides by public parks, this three level residential building commands panoramic views of Coogee Bay and the Tasman.

Setting a benchmark for high quality architectural design in the area, the building is an exercise in o!-form concrete construction with its unique form sculpted to protect views and sunlight to the buildings adjacent.

Chosen for its raw and robust qualities in its coastal location, concrete is combined with powder coated metal, glass and rubble stone to form a simple palette that reflects the exposed site.

The dramatic beam structure of the so!its is expressed as o!-form concrete when outside and skim coated with white plaster inside. Polished concrete floors in the living spaces are o!set against rich oak veneer joinery and timber decking.
