Explore the Mermaid Beach House: Stunning Design & Smart Renovation on the Gold Coast
Join us as we take you inside the Mermaid Beach House, an architectural masterpiece by Maher Design nestled along the sandy shores of the Gold Coast. Originally an extensive renovation project, this beach house seamlessly blends with its coastal surroundings through meticulous planning and thoughtful material choices.
Designer Geraldine Maher faced both challenges and opportunities while working within the home's original structure. The focus was on creating material cohesion and enhancing the connection to the beach, starting with the ground floor's thoughtful transformation.
Step inside and be greeted by a stunning brise soleil made from terracotta breezeblocks, designed by Adam Goodrum, which sets the tone for the entry and subtly divides the space leading to the kitchen. Geraldine strategically relocated the kitchen to the rear, maximizing ocean views from the dining and living areas. Despite the compact space, the kitchen feels open and airy, thanks to clever zoning and high-quality Fisher & Paykel appliances. The sleek induction cooktop, integrated refrigerator, and freezer add to the refined design.
A long piece of joinery connects the kitchen to the informal bar area, featuring integrated Fisher & Paykel Cool Drawers and Dish Drawers, ensuring seamless functionality. The family games room also boasts its own Cool Drawer and Dish Drawer for added convenience.
Mermaid Beach House is a feast for the eyes and a testament to intelligent design, offering an elevated living experience that harmonizes with the ever-changing ocean backdrop. The residents' joy and connection to the environment are renewed daily, making this beach house a true coastal haven.
