13th Beach Brick House is a new three bedroom house designed by Auhaus Architecture, located adjacent to a coastal golf course fairway in Melbourne, Australia.  The layout, form and construction of the house is designed to counter winds that roll across the dunes and the golf course and provide privacy from the daily procession of golfers whilst also giving views to the golf course.

The embracing masonry walls wrap around a central, north facing courtyard, giving the house an immense sense of privacy and seclusion from neighboring properties and passing golfers.

The encircling plan allows for light, curated vistas and an inherent interconnectedness between the building and landscape. The entry slips between two soaring blade walls into a double height space, the void carrying through the living zone and giving the house a heightened sense of light and space within its contained footprint.

The sculpted interior provides distinct yet connected living zones, while the limewashed brick walls create a luminous and tactile surface finish. A cantilevered study perches over the entry, connecting the two living levels. The house offers a robust, low maintenance and serene internal environment with punctuated views to the landscape.
