Internal and external views of the Cliff House, made by Modscape, an Australian firm based in Brooklyn, Victoria.
To build a conventional house in such an extraordinary setting would have seemed an impossible—or at least extremely expensive feat. But thanks to the latest design technologies and modular prefabrication by Modscape—which use steel pins engineering—such projects are now a reality.Visitors enter Cliff House through a garage located on the top floor, and an elevator takes them to the lower levels. Inside, the living spaces feature minimalist furniture to ensure that the ocean views and the unique spatial experience of the location remain the focal points of the design. For this reason, each level has an exterior made predominantly of thick unbreakable glass for residents to enjoy the breathtaking panoramic vistas of a usually rough sea.Although the different floors of the building become gradually smaller, Cliff House has enough space at the top to park two midsize cars. As you go down, you will find a living room, kitchen with dining area, three bedrooms, a bathroom, and even a spa.
Cliff House offers the unique experience of enjoying a warm bubble bath while listening and watching a storm at sea. ■
