Hovard Residence
Perched on the edge of a breathtaking escarpment in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, Hovard is a home that embraces its extraordinary setting. With sprawling views, gentle breezes, and an ever-present connection to the local flora and fauna, the design is deeply rooted in place. Expansive openings and carefully framed spaces ensure every room captures the dramatic landscape, while the house itself appears to hover over the mountain’s edge.
Anchored by an infinity-edge pool that seemingly floats above the valley, the home is defined by voided volumes, layers of transparency, and a material palette that harmonises with its surroundings. The interplay of solid and open elements creates a dynamic living experience—one that fosters a profound sense of belonging and tranquillity. Hovard is more than a house; it is a retreat that dissolves the boundary between built form and nature.
