Open water, wide skies and a shoreline that’s always changing with the light and tide - it's easy to see why so many people choose to call this stretch of coast home.

Designed for comfort and connection to its surroundings, this living space features all of our favourite things. A fireplace anchors the room, while raking ceilings create volume and light.

Framed views extend to the trees beyond, grounding the interior in its landscape and providing a calm, natural outlook from every angle.

Natural light was a key focus in this custom home in Willyung.

The high raked ceiling and full-height glazing draw the outdoors in, filling the living space with light throughout the day and framing the surrounding landscape.
