The Luxurious Elysium 169, Australia
Australian design studio BVN Architecture with offices in Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney has designed the Elysium 169 House. Completed in 2009 the luxurious property can be found in Noosa, Queensland, Australia.
According to the architects: “This contemporary Australian house was designed as a part of the 189 house Elysium Noosa development.
“This generous and open house celebrates its wonderful location on the edge of an environmental park overlooking Lake Weyba. The sculptured modernist expression of its white washed walls and deeply carved recesses combine with the softening effects of finely detailed timber screens and natural finishes for a sense of contemporary elegance and refined under statement.
“The interplay of natural textured surfaces and abundant natural light contribute to the rich and luxurious tropical character of the contemporary Australian property. The careful planning arrangement enables a sense of openness and connectivity with the adjacent pooland natural garden setting.”
