Coastal Living
Architecture and design for homes, buildings and floating structures shaped by coastal sites, salt air, tides and waterfront conditions.
Coastal living places architecture in direct contact with water, weather and shifting shorelines. Designers working on these sites must account for wind, humidity, flooding risk, erosion and the strong relationship between interior space and the landscape beyond.Member work under this topic ranges from beach houses on sloped tropical terrain and waterfront residences in Tasmania to floating and mobile structures, a marine ranch and a cultural center. Together these projects examine how buildings can elevate, adapt, or move with the coast rather than resist it.
