We like this minimalist approach to seaside living from Australian architect Nathan Gibson Judd, who calls the project "a contemporary reinterpretation of the robust/rudimentary fibro Australian beach houses of the 1950s and 60s, which embodied an ethos of minimum amenity and basic construction."
The elements are simple: a plywood-paneled ceiling, a stainless counter with integrated sink, and rudimentary open shelving. See another project by Judd at Architect Visit: Nathan Gibson Judd in Australia.
