Of Architecture | Newquay Residence
On the serrated coastline of Fistral Bay, a new residence sits on top of a tiered terrace garden on cliffs of Esplanade Road. As the clients’ home and workspace, the design brief is to be inventive with a minimal material palette.
Internally, the house celebrates local materials by featuring bare concrete blocks, revealing the beauty in stonemasonry of the region. With exposed galvanised contuits, ductwork, and industrial light fittings, the architecture is truthful to the unembellished infrastructure that powers it.
