A cliff-edge site, a brief for drama, and board-formed concrete.
Tamarama Cut is a house that embraces its precarious location. The site drops away sharply to the ocean, and the architect's design — all board-formed concrete and glass — is cantilevered out over the cliff. The texture of the concrete is deliberate: every board mark, every pour line is part of the vocabulary. Our challenge was to make the structural daring invisible while keeping the material honesty front and center. The house feels monumental and quiet at once.
