Tamarama House

GSA Planning gained approval for this sophisticated dwelling house set on the corner site of the hills overlooking Tamarama Beach, designed by Porebski Architects.

“The Tamarama House is an architectural manifestation of the beach lifestyle. Located on a corner site on the hills overlooking Tamarama Beach the design allows the house to be a sculpture on the site. With stone forming the base a sculptured curved facade creates the lighter upper levels. The building is beautifully modulated by the use of timber batten extensions forming bay windows against the curvaceous white render masonry which all sit wonderfully with the Will Dangar designed gardens.

Designed for a family of four the house is inverted from the traditional house with the main living areas positioned on the top floor to take advantage of the ocean views and allows these rooms to use the volume of the roof space creating strikingly formed ceilings.” – Porebski Architects
