CplusC Architects + Builders wins 2025 TIDA Australia Architect New Home of the Year
Congratulations to CplusC Architects and Builders, winner of the 2025 TIDA Australia Architect New Home of the Year – bold visual presence and forward-thinking design
Commissioned by a dynamic family of four who regularly welcome guests, this project replaces a modest, weathered fisherman’s cottage with a striking contemporary, multi-level home.
Designed to celebrate its spectacular coastal views – north towards North Bondi and south towards Coogee – the house blends modern Australian living with refined, bespoke detailing.
It’s a true sanctuary – a place for relaxing, socialising, and growing together – reflecting the owners’ deep love of beachside living, where swimming, snorkelling and entertaining are part of everyday life during Sydney’s vibrant summers.
The social spaces sit on the top floor, capturing both north and south coastal views.
An elevated concrete pool offers the perfect place to cool off, while the surrounding living areas enjoy sunlight all day.
On the ground floor, the more private zones – including bedrooms, a gym, and a wine cellar – are open to a sunken central courtyard, while a dramatic triple-height spiral stair becomes the sculptural heart of the home.
Suspended bridges cross the courtyard, encouraging the family to step outdoors as they move between spaces.
The TIDA judges were impressed by the home’s bold visual presence and its forward-thinking design – a seamless fusion of personal history, innovation, and relaxed coastal living.
Congratulations to CplusC Architects + Builders – winner of the 2025 TIDA Australia Architect New Home of the Year.
