What a beautiful dance the azure waves of the sea show on the bed of sand. The dance of the waves on the calm Tamarama beach leads to the end of a calm construction along the beach. Organic and dynamic levels are found in all aspects to surprise the viewer from all perspectives.

Phoenix House was a deeply personal project which became a labour of love. I had purchased a small Queenslander from the early 1900s in Corinda, Brisbane. I had different plans for it, but my life took an interesting turn and it was suddenly to become the new home for myself and my two children.
