2022 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
South Brighton Surf Life Saving Club Rebuild
The new Surf Life Saving club sits on its original occupied site. Its angular roof line successfully connects with the sweeping form of the South Brighton sand dunes. The ground floor provides the practicalities of the surf club with storage, changing rooms, training spaces and vastly improved lifesaving access to the beach. The first floor provides a well-used community hub, sheltered balconies, club lounge and bar. The Patrol room is raised further to provide a clear view along the beach. Rendered concrete block and cedar and hardwood cladding are finished naturally providing visual harmony with the beach environment.
