Rebuilding Crystal River after Hurricane Helene Gives Hope

Story and photos by Tom Craig Crystal River was inundated by an overwhelming surge of water caused by the winds of Hurricane Idalia. That water inundated businesses on US 19 to the Gulf of Mexico, as noted by headlines of August 30, 2023. On September 30, 2024, those headlines could be exactly the same - except Hurricane Helene had a different name, and this time the water intrusion in the coastal community was worse!  On Monday, September 30, 2024, I visited the waterfront, and at least two Crystal River restaurants were open for business. Most of the City of Crystal River still had no power. There are closed roads, service trucks partially blocking roads, and huge piles of roadside trash comprised mostly of couches, mattresses, carpets, and furniture. And of course, storm debris including of huge trees, branches pieces of fencing, drywall, and roofing material lined most of the downtown streets - just about a little of everything. Then there are the disaster tourists taking pictures of what they’ve been seeing on the news for days. Of course, I have to add myself to that list because I am here amidst the ruins. I happened to be in town for an interview, so I thought I’d take a quick ride around and talk to some of Crystal River’s displaced employees and businesses.  Crystal River Restaurants Quickly Work to Rebuild and Welcome Guests after Hurricane Helene Tom Craig was in Crystal River for an interview and stopped at several downtown restaurants affected by Hurricane Helene's massive storm surge. The Tipsy Tarpon and Crackers were open for business when I arrived around noon on Monday. Granted, they were in different states of readiness and offering limited menus, but customers were being served!   Chris Kofmehl, owner of the Tipsy Tarpon said, “I don’t really have a lot to say, but we’re familiar with Crystal River so we built the Tipsy Tarpon. (which is surrounded by water on three sides) so that the water just kind of flows in and flows out.”   “We just came in after the storm and pressure washed the whole place. We brought all of our equipment back and hooked it back up and we’re open for business,” Chris shared.  Eddie over at Electrix, an electrical contractor based in Inverness, said, “Most of the work, like some 30 of my customers in the Crystal River area are dealing with, is underground wires and junction boxes inundated by water. We are replacing panels, pulling the conduit and wires, drying them off, - sometimes we have to replace everything - and reconnecting them back to the service panel.” Chris continued, “We are from the area, we know Crystal River, we know about storm surge. All of our stuff (electric supply) comes from overhead up there (pointing to the transformer up above) and our panel is built up to code. It is well over our heads at 15 feet in the air, so the water didn’t get near any of it. And all our electric is all brand new, so it’s up high. Our kitchen is mobile. We pulled out our kitchen and our ice machines, which are on wheels, before the storm. And that’s pretty much it.  After the storm, we pulled the kitchen back in, hook it up to the electric, roll the ice machines into the bar area, stock the snacks and drinks… And we’re open for business!”  Crackers is also open for business. Granted, their food is being served from a food truck and they are using generators to run power to the bar outside, but there are customers sitting at the bar. The customers walk over to the food truck, buy what they want, and bring it back to the bar outside. They are enjoying the outdoor dining area with its tremendous view of Kings Bay.  Equipment, walls, and more are being quickly moved out of The Crab Plant in this photo. Work like this is going on throughout Gulf Coast businesses that were flooded by Hurricane Helene. Local Favorites Hit Hard by Helene - Kane's Cattle Co., Bayside Craft Kitchen and The Crab Plant are Already Cleaning and Repairing Equipment to Reopen Kane‘s Steak House, the Bayside Kraft Kitchen (formerly Charlie’s Crab House), and The Crab Plant were closed.  Kason Sundberg of Lollygaggers and Rise and Dine, both on US 19 in the shopping plaza across from the Crystal River airport, and Kanes Cattle Co. steakhouse in downtown Crystal River, was in Kane’s with another worker, preparing the restaurant to be cleaned and restored. He had already cut all the drywall above the surge line and removed it. He pulled out all the equipment that he could move into the parking lot. Three huge trucks were ready to take all the equipment out that had been submerged in water. Then Kason would be waiting for equipment, and movers to remove and return all of the fixed equipment.  Kason said, “It’ll have to be a while. Right now, we’re mediating any mold and any damage.  We haven’t seen any insurance adjusters yet.” Like many homeowners, business owners must wait for the insurance adjusters to assess the damage before it is deemed irreparable or unusable.   “I’ll be up and running here as soon as we can. I will be bringing our staff and a partial menu from Kanes to Rise and Dine and we will be serving dinners out of there.”  At Crackers, the outdoor seating area is open. I walked through the parking lot, past all the kitchen equipment and the food truck, into the outdoor dining area. Devon, a server at Crackers said, “We’ve been busting our butts for three days, but everything is coming bright and shiny.” Kyle Garrick, General Manager of Crackers said, “We will be fully open Thursday or Friday. Technically we’re open now, because we’re serving beer and food with a food truck. We have no power right now. We’re running on generators.”  The indoor seating is closed except for employees clean every nook and cranny, removing the wet drywall and structural elements. They are working very hard going over the inside seating area with a fine-tooth comb and placing anything of value to be assessed for damage and waiting for the insurance adjusters. All of Cracker’s kitchen equipment is in the parking lot and there are fans running everywhere.  I asked Kyle if he’d seen an insurance adjuster yet. He replied, “No.”  To be fair, if you saw what I saw, and that is just a little glimpse of the entire Gulf Coast, the insurance adjusters are surely overwhelmed.  At The Crab Plant all of the material from inside their store that was wet and could become moldy has been put out in the parking lot in piles. Like all the others, hoses and fans, cleaning equipment, and piles of drywall and damaged materials had been moved from inside the restaurant.  A group of three people came out of the restaurant when they saw me in the parking lot and asked if they could help me. I told him who I am. A writer from the naturecoaster.com.  “We’re blessed, we’re fortunate.” said one of The Crab Plant management team on Kings Bay.  Open for Business: Get out and Support these Establishments I asked, “How soon do you expect to reopen?” Candy replied, “As soon as we can. It’s a lot of work and we want to do it right.”  Another manager said, “One week and we should be open.”  I didn’t visit all of the restaurants in Crystal River. The Plantation on Crystal River, Oysters, Seafood Sellers and so many more… It’s not easy to get out and around because of the cleanup. I was just able to touch on the surface of what’s going on in Crystal River - and the many communities and cities impacted by Hurricane Helene. Everyone I spoke with on Monday, September 20, 2024, inspired my confidence. The people I spoke to assured me they’re opening up as soon as they can. They are doing an amazing job getting their establishments “bright and shiny” to safely serve food and drink, as Devon said. Meanwhile, we are anxiously awaiting our beloved Crystal River to return to the way it was before the storm.  Read the full article

3101 West Coast Highway, CA

Located at Mariner’s Mile in Newport Beach, 3101 West Coast Highway is a renovation and adaptive reuse of a 4-story Cape Cod-style building from the 1980s into a modern articulation of the marine coastal aesthetic

Situated on a concrete podium 6’ above West Coast Highway, this project creates a modern aesthetic by removing existing embellishments to enhance the clean and timeless geometry of the gabled roofs, all while staying within compliance with the Coastal Commission’s strict reframing constraints.

The existing dormers were demolished to create inset terraces providing tenants with fresh air, natural light, and unobstructed bayside views.

Removing floor slabs enable double-height spaces while opening-up bayside gable walls with floor-to-ceiling curtain walls create transparency from the street to the bayside. Tenant spaces were also demised in a north/south direction to provide all tenants with bayside views throughout the building.

The bayside connection was shifted from walking through a parking garage to utilizing a public plaza, encouraging pedestrian traffic along the waterfront. The existing stairs and boat ramp were demolished and replaced with an ADA-accessible ramp that winds around new concrete-stepped planters, creating a meandering circulation that provides a slow and peaceful walk to the public podium.

On the podium level, the existing boat storage was converted into a public plaza with planters and custom teak furniture, while outdoor patios off the east façade enhanced the ambiguity between interior/exterior conditions. Following the Mariner’s Mile design framework, which encourages connections to the waterfront as much as possible, a 10’ easement on the bulkhead side and east side of the property allows for public access to the bay.

Elevated by the rejection of typically provided bulky trim pieces, the project’s standing seam panels use custom break metal details throughout the project to create clean corner conditions. Exposed steel connections at the top of the columns emphasize the appearance of the horizontal channels floating above, while existing interior framing elements are exposed and sandblasted to provide a warm yet minimal space.

The building’s juxtaposition of transparent and opaque surfaces creates tonal shifts and spatial depth throughout the façade. As the sun rises, standing seam metal panels glow with metallic luster while interspersed high-performance glazing reflects the sunset’s gradations.

The building’s sense of transparency is enhanced by the cable rails installed by local sailors, which provide physical safety without compromising the bay’s vistas. Other local marine elements include the main entry canopy, reminiscent of an inverted boat hull built by a local builder using marine-grade ply covered in resin. In addition, Ipe trellis columns and canvas covering materials draw inspiration from nautical masts and booms.

Interior Designer Amanda Martin, and her sister, Architect Lauren Martin bring a wealth of experience to their fledgling design studio, Studio Martin. Lauren completed her Masters of Architecture at RMIT, and started her Architectural career at Baldasso Cortese and later Preston Lane, working across large Education and Health Care projects, as well as smaller Residential work.

Meanwhile, Amanda studied Interior Design at Monash University, including six months at Monash’s Prato Centre in Italy. After returning to Melbourne, she landed a role at HASSELL, across a range of both residential and commercial interior design.

With these solid foundations, the sisters bring a unique and highly personalised approach to their design projects. One distinctive hallmark of their work is an unexpected juxtaposition of textures, like lux velvet and stone, with more natural, textural elements.  Working in close collaboration, they always get the balance just right!

Today we get to know this dynamic duo, and their unique take on contemporary Australian interiors.

Hi Lauren and Amanda, tell us a little about yourselves, and what led you to founding your practice together?

We are sisters, Lauren Architect, Amanda Interior Designer. We started our Architecture and Interior design studio nearly 2.5 years ago.

We grew up in what is now known as the modernist hub – Beaumaris, in Melbourne’s bayside. We are passionate about design, we love art, we love discovering new things and vintage pieces.

After each of us spent some time working in larger design firms here in Melbourne, we wanted to create our own studio –something that was ours, that we could build together and be proud of. That’s how Studio Martin was born!

Your projects have an incredible layered quality – how would you describe your aesthetic as a studio?

Basically, when we design a space it’s about a feeling, it’s about an experience, it’s about affecting your senses, it’s about leaving an impression on someone. That is how we build a project.

We do everything together. Whether it is an Architectural or Interiors project or both, we work together throughout the whole process as a team, both perspectives. We believe that planning creates the space, the space creates the experience and the materiality adds to the senses. That is layering, that is our aesthetic.

You have quite a distinctive approach to furnishings, often pairing lux finishes with much more relaxed and textural wicker pieces – such as the use of Sika Design’s Teddy Armchair in your Fitzgibbon Residence project. Tell us about this project ?

This project was a completely new build that the client had purchased off the plan. We were engaged to design the interiors and enhance the spatial experience.

Working within the building framework, our approach was to create a minimal and pared back interior, to emphasise a sense of calm. The intent was to use natural materials to create warmth. The timber battened wall panelling was carried throughout the home forming a cohesive journey through the spaces.

The Teddy armchair was the perfect fit for the project, as it complimented the use of natural materials across the project and offered a strong sculptural form within the space.

Rattan furniture is often imagined as quite rustic, retro or exclusively for use outdoors – but Sika Design’s rattan collections are surprisingly versatile and contemporary. You’ve used these pieces in a few of your projects – what do you like about them?

We love that it becomes a sculptural element, almost like a form of artwork within the space.

Sika design’s furniture is handcrafted and woven from one material – rattan, which is natural, raw and sustainable. They are an ICON, not to mention over 80 years old and counting.

In particular our must haves are the Belladonna Sofa (the ultimate love seat) designed by Franco Albini, and the Charlottenborg lounge chair, designed by Arne Jacobsen.

What’s your advice for integrating rattan or handwoven furniture in a contemporary interior – where does this style of furniture work best, and what other sort of furnishings of textures would you pair them with?

The Sika ‘Icons Collection’ are all classic pieces, and a great place to start. The material is natural and light, and can sit in any space. It can work well in a crisp minimal white interior as a statement piece, or alternatively juxtaposed with rich, bold, or solid textures, furnishings, or objects.

The beauty of the Sika products are that you can leave them as their sculptural form which is raw, but highly detailed and intricate, or dress them up with upholstery seat pads or cushions, in a retro leopard or leaf print for a bit of pop!

What do you love most about running your business together?

Working together. We do everything together. We know what each other is thinking. We have an unspoken synergy. We inspire each other to keep reaching for new creative places to go, but we also remind each other of what our roots are in our individual fields. It’s been 30 years of learning how to communicate.

What’s next for Studio Martin?

Designing buildings, spaces and objects that are truly honest, real, and creative! Oh, and having a ton of fun along the way!

For more than 30 years, DOMO has remained Australia’s exclusive stockist of prestigious design brands from Europe, and across the globe.

With showrooms in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide, DOMO offers a curated collection of classic, contemporary indoor and outdoor furniture ranges that last a lifetime.

In Sickness and in Health (a Quackervolt sap story)

Experimenting with posting story stuff here. Just a short little thing with Megavolt and Quackerjack which also happens to be one of the first fanfictions I ever wrote. Or rather, started writing. Finally finished it recently and @doktorgirlfriend was kind enough to help me edit in an attempt to improve my silly fangirl writing skills. Thanks lady! I appreciate it lots ♥

Enjoy the floof ♥

A rainy night in St. Canard: bleak, cold and miserable. There was very little Megavolt hated more than the rain. The smell was somewhat nice, but his sinuses were so messed up at that point he could barely enjoy it anymore. Or had they always been messed up? At least his makeshift residence was warm despite that pesky draft that whistled through the bayside window. The resident space heater took care of him very well in that regard. Megavolt made a mental note to thank him later, but it was quickly filed away among the many other bits of information doomed to be forgotten.

The lighthouse was dingy, slightly dilapidated and rather musky, but it was well lit as always, and Megavolt felt comfortable there even if there was that one leak in the roof that he was too paranoid to go anywhere near. The dripping of it mocked him constantly on days like this, but the melody of static that played in his head did pretty well to block it out. Still, he really should get that leak fixed someday. It was yet another forgotten memory, quickly reduced to a black haze in the back of his mind when the thought was replaced by a sharp rapping at his window.  

He lifted an eyebrow in confusion. Not that confusion was an unusual state for him, but this was definitely something curious. Lilith told him clearly that it was almost 11:30, and although she often disagreed with Henry and Hank, she was usually right about these things. Not that most people would take the word of an often ornery alarm clock over the sound advice of a rather level headed oven and his microwave sidekick, but Megavolt did believe it was that late. If the hours he had spent sitting on the couch and stewing were any indication, it was definitely that late, and that would mean only one someone would be anywhere near the lighthouse. Sure, there was only one person that ever was around generally, but he had made it very clear earlier that he was far too busy for his boyfriend tonight. Megavolt still wasn’t entirely sure what Quackerjack’s frustrated ramblings had meant exactly, but it was hardly unusual for him to be confused by the man. Chances were he had just been trying to end the conversation so he could pout as he usually did when they argued.

Megavolt scowled at the sound of Quackerjack’s voice in his ear, the recollection of that earlier phone call dislodged in that moment to replay in his head in a somewhat altered fashion from how it went down in reality. Not that he was aware of that little detail. Quackerjack had definitely been trying to get him to go on some silly heist; he was sure of that. Pretty sure. Maybe? Or it was just that thing about adopting a puppy? Either way, it ended with the man child irrationally mad at him. That he was sure of.

Tap, tap, tap.

There was that sound again. Megavolt had forgotten there had been a sound. The string of lights around the window urged him to investigate. He did so begrudgingly, but not without a soft grumble to express his annoyance. Whoever it was, they had better be looking for some free electroshock therapy. How did they get to the top of the lighthouse anyway?

Megavolt was already sparking by the time he reached the window, throwing the curtain back with so much force that the lights above nearly fell. His mouth was already open to let forth a mini explosion of vulgar content, but the words quickly scattered and were forgotten as soon as he saw who it was.

“Quacky?”

“You know it, sugah! Miss meh?”

The drenched clown giggled at the shocked look on Megavolt’s face, the customary sound of amusement quickly devolving into a hacking cough. Megavolt was so mesmerized by the way the rain was making his entire body shimmer beneath the lights that he jumped at the shock of the obtrusive sounds. It was then that he truly began to study the other man, noting his overly pale and obviously shuddering body. Combine that with the snot he was struggling to keep contained in his nose, and it was obvious why exactly he had been in such a grumpy mood earlier.

Quackerjack always did hate being sick.

“Come play wit me, Megs!” Quackerjack said, mustering as much of his usual enthusiasm as he could.

Despite the effort, Megavolt’s theory was quickly proven right as the sound of the duck’s stuffed sinuses and raw throat echoed in his voice. He sighed heavily at the rather pathetic display. “You’re sick, Quackerjack! And it’s raining. I am NOT getting drenched and letting you catch your death just so you can get some new toys,” Megavolt replied.

The crossed arms and stubborn look on his face clearly said that was not open for debate, but Quackerjack wasn’t exactly one to take a hint.

“M’ nod sick!”

“Yes, you are, and I don’t want you getting sicker, so just—”

The words were rudely stopped in their tracks when an annoyingly familiar face invaded his personal space, grinning that annoying grin and mocking him with that over-stuffed head of his.

“He said he’s not sick, Dick.”

Megavolt scowled at the high-pitched voice. “Oh, reeeal mature, Fruit-face,” he grumbled at the inanimate doll.

He didn’t have a chance to respond further before Quackerjack was climbing through the window, bringing a disconcerting amount of the outdoors with him. Megavolt backed nervously away from the growing puddle before scampering off and leaving a rather crestfallen Quackerjack behind.

Quackerjack gave the fidgety rodent a moment to make his motives clearer rather than tracking more of the terrifying fluid through his living space. He took the moment of frustrating isolation to wipe some of the water from his feathers, cringing as he removed his hat to ring out some of the excess moisture while sniffing more mucus into his throat. Quackerjack was barely given the time to look up before he was wrapped in a very warm and very fluffy blanket. Megavolt’s favorite blanket to be precise. The fact that he would sacrifice the comforter on such a cold night for the literal task of comforting his friend made Quackerjack feel far warmer than he already did. For a moment everything was sparkles and love-stained light as the sight of Megavolt standing there, backlit and fussing over him, held him captive. It was obvious by the way his mouth was moving that he was saying something, but all Quackerjack could manage in that moment was to watch those lips dance and whiskers twitch from the action.

“Wha?” Quackerjack slurred distantly.

“I said you need to lie down! You’re burning up, Quacky!” Megavolt said as he ran his fingers through the feathers on Quackerjack’s forehead with only a light wince to show how the moist plumage hurt him.

“M’ not sick, damnit!”

Quackerjack immediately paled, his plumage turning an unnatural, sickly hue as his body mocked him in that moment. Try though it might, his mouth could not repress the determination of his stomach to torment him. He produced little more than a stifled sound of discomfort before rushing from the room and trailing the now damp blanket behind him.

It took a moment for Megavolt’s brain to catch up, as it often did, but the second that telltale sound of vomiting came from the small bathroom down the hall, he was quickly up to speed on what was happening. Megavolt sighed heavily at the retching, slipping into the bathroom behind his friend. He bent over slightly so he could rub the jester’s heaving back gently. “So, ready to admit it yet?”  

Quackerjack grumbled miserably as he swatted at the hand currently attempting to offer comfort. “Dis doesn mean andythingh,”he insisted, still trying to convince himself more than Megavolt that he wasn’t sick. “I’m jus doingh this for fudn.”

“Riiight. Well, when you’re done having fun I’ll be in the living room.”

Really, Megavolt hated to leave him when he was so miserable, but he also knew how stubborn his other half could be, and he wasn’t going to stand in the now unpleasantly scented bathroom while Quackerjack tried to convince him that it meant nothing. Experience told him that if left alone long enough to wallow in his own gloom, he would seek out Megavolt’s company eventually.

Megavolt stretched out on the couch, kicking his boots off and fidgeting his fingers against the rough fabric. He supposed it was past time to steal a new sofa, but this one had so many memories attached to it he was afraid to let it go. There weren’t many things in his life that recalled any sort of past occurrence, so he was hesitant to abandon anything that reminded him of so many fond memories of his beloved partner.  It hadn’t even been that long since the mallard had become a partner to him in more ways than one, but memory in the short term was often even harder for him to deal with. Still, those moments remained tied to that piece of furniture as if they had been weaved into the worn fibers, and it made Megavolt smile at the various forms of playtime that had taken place there.

The grin on his face morphed into a roll of his eyes when more retching filtered from his bathroom. Quackerjack was nothing if not stubborn, and being sick was definitely one of his least favorite things to do.

“What? Don’t look at me like that. HE’S the one being all bitchy. He knows where to find me when he’s willing to admit it,” Megavolt muttered in reply to the unasked question from the light beside him.  “Don’t get your filaments in a twist.”

The toilet flushed, the sink ran, and before Megavolt knew it he could hear the soft creaking of the floorboards as Quackerjack slowly returned. He was wrapped tightly in the oversized blanket, bundled up as though trying to hide completely in its comforting warmth. His hat was clenched in trembling fingers, which might have meant nothing to most people, but to Megavolt it was an obvious sign that he wasn’t in a normal state of mind.

“Megsy,” the miserable jester whined with a sniffle, “I’m siiiiick.”

Megavolt couldn’t keep the small smirk off his face at the adorable condition his friend was in. It just wasn’t very often that he saw Quackerjack needing comfort in quite such a way. “Oooh, you don’t say,” he replied sarcastically.

Quackerjack nodded as though oblivious to the fact that the other man wasn’t being serious. He frowned, sniffing his dripping snot back into his nose and groaning unhappily at the way it made his abused throat hurt even more. He sighed dramatically, making his way over to the worn couch and dropping himself into the cushions face down so he could lay his head in Megavolt’s lap.

Megavolt tried not to cringe at the snot that was being smeared on his legs, but was only slightly successful. At least the thick blanket was enough to keep any hint of moisture off of his body. That slight comfort made him happy for sure, but the sight of the softly shivering mallard currently snuggled against him was somewhat heartbreaking. He stroked at the disheveled feathers on Quackerjack’s head, running his fingers gently through the sweat-slicked plumage. No matter how many times he saw the other man without his hat he would never get used to the sight. It was rare that the jester ever removed the beloved item. In fact, the only times Megavolt had ever seen it absent in the past was when Quackerjack was forced to wash it or wash his head.

Quackerjack snuggled closer to the other man’s ministrations, already falling prey to his exhaustion. “Soodn as I’m betta, yo owe me soooo mush playtime,” he mumbled nasally.

Megavolt snorted, undeniably amused by his friend’s insistence. “Only if you do everything I say until you’re better,” he said, taking the opportunity to make a deal with the dejected clown.

“Eveythingh?”

“Everything.”

Quackerjack grumbled at the response, displeased pout settling on his face; he just knew Megavolt was going to make him take nasty tasting medicine and rest all the time. He was pretty sure being stationary for more than five minutes was literally detrimental to his health. “Fiiine,” he finally responded, “but dyou gotta wear the nurse’s outfit.”

“I am not wearing your nurse outfit.”

“Awww, why not?”

“Because I still can’t believe you talked me into it the first time!”

“Bu I wasn even really sick that time!”

“Too bad. You used up your… Megsy nurse… privileges. Besides, the oven was laughing at me for months after that.”

“Oh, who cares what Henry thinks. Dude’s got an attidude problem.”

“Stop trying to make me wear dresses!”

“Poo, you’re no fud.”

“And yet you keep knocking on my door at four in the morning wanting to play hide and seek.”

Quackerjack blew a raspberry at him, the action causing another coughing fit. "Fdine, Mr. Boring." He paused for a moment. "Megs?"

“Yes, Quacky?”

“Watch cardoons wid me?”

Megavolt smiled at the request, pulling Quackerjack closer so he could snuggle into the sofa with him. “That I think I can handle.”

Bluish House

Architect: Studiocolnaghi

Location: Xangri-lá, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil

The Bluish House is located on the Brazilian Southern coast, and it is use during holidays and weekends by a young couple. The client’s aim to a refugee on the bayside to welcome friends and family.

The project intention was to create a well function house but also a space to enjoy and appreciate the outside view. The sensation of an open space connected to the balcony and the pool is established by a wide window. There are no high elements which also contributes to a fluid indoor-outdoor perception.

The interior design follows neutral colors and uses natural materials. Concrete creates a contrast between the double height ceiling fireplace and wood, which appears in several elements as the kitchen ceiling and the dining table. Marble was another material choice to this project. Marble grey Armani was chosen to create a horizontal element to the fireplace and also to overlay the staircase steps. In the kitchen, there is Calacatta marble used as panels.

The restroom is a space beyond. The skinner stone covers all the walls, while a grey marble appears as a monolithic element, the sink.

Colors were an important elemento of this project. Blue, green were the main shades on the composition.

At the bedrooms there are a beach inspiring mood, using neutral and light colors but also some wood details. The thing is: beach house doesn’t need much furniture, but we cared about creating a welcome space to our clientes and their guests.

At the master bedroom, there is a complete integrated bathroom, using an reflected glass. At the Dudu’s bedroom, son’s couple, we designed a ludic space using a greenish palette.

A Mindful, Minimal Take On Modernist Design

All materials and building techniques were selected for their honesty, as well as their ability to patina over time. Photo – Shannon McGrath

Priority was placed on the creation of outdoor areas and integrating the landscape into the design. Photo – Shannon McGrath

‘Minimalism was not directly pursued as an aesthetic, but rather as an outcome to our stance on sustainability,’ says Studiofour co-director Annabelle Berryman. Photo – Shannon McGrath

The clients saw this home not only as a physical stricture, but as a metaphorical structure of their values: family, health and integrity. Photo – Shannon McGrath

Sarah Henry says ‘If I could summarise the objective for our new house in one sentence it would be, to create a little bit of something precious, rather than a lot of something mediocre.’ Photo – Shannon McGrath

There are several clear influences that underpin the Ruxton Rise Residence – a recently built home by Studiofour.

Located in Beaumaris, a bayside Melbourne suburb once dominated by mid-century homes, Studiofour saw the opportunity to draw on the area’s architectural heritage in the design. ‘Creating a new home within this area should be deemed a privilege, and should pay respect to this architectural history,’ says Sarah Henry, co-director at Studiofour. ‘Taking cues from the local mid-century homes, our solution sought to demonstrate that by maintaining a small footprint, we could deliver a high-quality building that relied on authentic, honest materials and construction techniques.’

The clients saw this home not only as a physical structure, but as an expression of their values: family, health and integrity. Taking these principles into account, Studiofour’s design explores what is required for a young family to live minimally and mindfully. One of the key aims was to help simplify domestic tasks required in family life, enabling the owners more time for what brings them joy and meaning. ‘All importance was placed on this quality of experience, rather than any visual statement,’ says Sarah. 

The resulting minimalist interiors are a further reflection of these desires, as well as Studiofour’s commitment to sustainability. ‘Minimalism was not directly pursued as an aesthetic, but rather as an outcome to our stance on sustainability,’ explains Studiofour co-director Annabelle Berryman. ‘Our strategy is to always ensure only the essential spaces are provided.’

As with many of Beaumaris’ mid-century homes, priority was placed on the creation of outdoor areas, and integrating the landscape into the design. Instead of looking to a large backyard, this home’s primary focus is inward towards a central courtyard. ‘The interior courtyard garden is treated like an extra room inside the home – a space to read, listen to music, or sit in the sun,’ says Sarah. By positioning the major outdoor space internally, the clients are awarded with a strong landscape presence as desired, as well as a high degree of privacy.

At its core, this is a home that enriches everyday experiences. The design was led by the fundamental principle that simplicity enables idleness, and time spent idle makes for a healthier state of mind.  ‘When we are idle, we want less and are more at peace when we get it,’ says Sarah. ‘The planning of the home was designed to lead to longer conversations, more intimate memories, and closer relationships.’
