THE BRIEF by Geraldine Maher 

In all my work I really love to convey the clients’ preferences, and here there was a real desire to inject their personality into the house and avoid the classic white beachside aesthetic.

Tough there was an aesthetic objective, it really was a form-follows-function result because the clients wanted this home to be as maintenance-free as possible.

This reimagined layout not only connects the interior spaces with the terrace, sand dunes and ocean beyond, but it allows for a fluidity of programming that reflects the clients’ patterns of living in this crucial part of the home
