The Gold Coast got its name from the top dollar real estate prices that prevailed in the 1950s. But we like to think it is because of our subtropical climate and over 300 days of golden sunshine each year. Add to this our stunning beaches and vibrant atmosphere, and you will find Gold Coast building designers in their element with innovative architectural ideas that compliment the unique lifestyle of Gold Coasters.
At Varli Building, our team adopts three pillars of excellent design in every project, bringing you a space that suits your needs and preferences. Let us take a closer look.
- Functionality and Efficiency
In modern home design, the focus is on function over form. The intention is to create spaces that serve a purpose. Practical considerations are applied to everything from the layout to the materials used, creating a home that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also comfortable and efficient to live in.
- Simplicity and Clean Lines
Modern architecture emphasises simplicity and clean lines, which go hand in hand with functionality. This helps create a feeling of calm and openness that would be missing in an overly elaborate building. Living on the Gold Coast is synonymous with a relaxed lifestyle, and modern designs echo this.
- In Harmony With Nature
Modern Gold Coast homes look to connect the indoors and the outdoors. With this in mind, the designs often include some of the following elements:
- Open-plan layouts which maximise natural lighting and airflow and create a sense of spaciousness and freedom.
- Large windows and sliding doors to allow for uninterrupted views of the natural surroundings and to allow the beauty of the outdoors to permeate indoor living spaces.
- Courtyards, patios, or decks which extend indoor spaces to the outdoors and provide opportunities for relaxation, entertainment and enjoyment of the natural surroundings.
- Natural materials are frequently used to complement modern designs. Timber, glass and stone, for example, provide an additional layer of connection to nature while creating a warm and inviting ambience.
- Sustainability features are high on the list of modern design elements and include options such as solar panels, water harvesting and other energy-efficient installations to minimise the environmental impact of your home.
Our Gold Coast building designers are committed to creating innovative and functional modern homes that suit your contemporary lifestyle. Contact Varli Building today to find out how we can turn your home renovation dreams into reality.
