Cove House

Australia´s beautiful Gold Coast has become known for its incredible array of architecture, with an eclectic collection of one-of-a-kind homes that dot the incredible coastline. Cove House by Justin Humphrey Architect, is a robust yet elegant new residence in a waterside suburb south of Brisbane, the main feature is a spatial interplay between internal and external spaces. Another notable feature is an off-form curved concrete wall that invites you in past a delicate timber-batten screen and through a series of landscaped courtyards through to the water beyond. Indoor and outdoor spaces are given the same priority within a house that connects its inhabitants strongly at all times to both water and garden.
