Construction Company: Vancouver Development

Vancouver Development’s design concept for Beachview focuses on highlighting the beauty and impact of nature, and in doing so the designers have balanced natural and artificial lighting to work with the collaboration of indoor and outdoor lifestyle that the home provides.

Offering 4800 sq.ft of open concept luxury living, this home captures amazing energy through nature, using skylights & European floor to ceiling windows which overlook calming, panoramic water views. Thoughtfully planned with a steel & concrete structure and a multifunctional open floorplan, the space embellishes a sophisticated aesthetic with artistic details, offers innovative ideas to maximise space, and presents stunning views in every area of the house highlighted by creative LED lighting design.

The clean-lined exterior is combined with ample European oversized windows and highlighted by an artistic green driveway to let the natural environment shine. The expansive windows and skylights were carefully designed and placed to bring natural lighting while maintaining privacy and also capturing unobstructed views throughout. The river rocks on the side of the modern concrete stairs were positioned with hidden twinkling lights to create an illusion of a waterfall as part of the property’s exterior.

Vancouver Development invited natural lighting into all rooms of the house; bright family and study areas continue the connection to the outdoors, along with a spacious basement illuminated by skylights. Stand out features of Beachview include the sculptural glass spiral staircase which acts as the focal point in the residence, and the understated kitchen with champagne bronze accents, innovative pantry and concealed door to wok kitchen. This space also passes the focus to the back garden and the views that the property has to offer, where the home opens out beautifully fades into rock retaining walls and green hedges.

The timeless interior design concept combines soft textures with matt neutral tones and finishes, and the integrated contemporary details have resulted in a refined yet inviting experience.
