Located in an enviable position within arm’s reach of a beach pier, the refurbishment of Coastal Beach House references the home’s coastal context and pays homage to it’s mid-century bones. “Our client’s brief sought to rejuvenate the double storey residence, whilst maintaining the existing building footprint”, explains Sarah Cosentino, director of Studio Esteta.
As the orientation of the original dwelling already maximized the coastal aspect, the client engaged Studio Esteta to tailor the spatial arrangement to better accommodate their love for entertaining with minor modifications.
“In response, our design seeks to be in synergy with the mid-century character that presented, emphasizing its stylistic significance to create a light-filled, serene and relaxed interior that feels wholly connected to the adjacent bay”, Sarah explains.
The client’s deep appreciation of the mid-century design aesthetic also called for original details to be preserved or used as reference points in the refurbishment. Items such as the unique wall hooks were repurposed and a light, tactile palette of natural materials was adopted. The neutral backdrop allowed space for the client’s extensive collection of art and ceramics and avoided distracting from the coastal views.

It’s first impression was memorable as immediately after entering the front door, just past the dining table, there was a tree growing in the middle of home! Upon further inspection of the space it became apparent that this home had undergone several alterations during its lifetime... We knew we wanted to transform this central space to be the focal point. The home’s design became based around the atrium and its tile ‘splash’. Other materials in this space that add to this effect are the 3D angular mouldings which flow from the glass ceiling to the floor. As well as the colour variation in the hexagon tile, radiating from light in the center to dark around the perimeter. These high contrast tiles not only draw your eye to the center of the atrium but the flush transition between the tiles and hardwood help connect the atrium with the rest of the home.
A string of vertical steel posts separates the living room from the floating stairs to the master suite and office, but maintains an open feeling.

A small site in the liberties presented the opportunity to develop a one bed house organised about a central lightwell/garden.
The site sits in a small gap (3m) left between Park Terrace, built ca. 1930, and the later Ash Grove development, built by Dublin Corporation in the 1970’s. The project engages both developments, continuing the unassuming pattern of Park Terrace on the front façade while using the language of the dark brick of Ash Grove to engage the unusual geometry of the rear boundary wall. Wrapped between these two extensions is a lightwell, including a winding staircase, glass floor and first floor garden, forming a protected private courtyard in the middle of the house.
The rest of the house is organised around this central element, giving light deep into the plan, and organising diagonal relationships both in plan and in section between the different spaces within the house.
