Beach is a favorite spot for recreating or vacation. And we do believe that having a beach residence could be anyone’s dream. Today, we love to share a beautiful beach house that is made of wood. Designed by Murdock Young architects, it is located above a hill with an amazing view of the Atlantic Ocean and green forest. Used as a vacation home, it is divided into two floor levels with a large outdoor pool and sun lounger. The Cutler Residence is built with textured wood panels that make the exterior and interior look warm and cozy. Expansive glass windows allow plenty of natural light to fill in the interior and leave no boundary between out and inside. The interior is very beautiful with touch of contemporary style and lovely furniture.

Located close to a well-known surfing spot, Slaughterhouse Beach House expands the concept of a traditional surfing hut with three connected huts – general living quarters, guest suites, and a main sleeping area. The structure’s walls are constructed from rammed earth. In this process, different local earth-based mixtures are packed together, and the resulting striated layers are visible both inside and outside the building. The walls blend in with the surroundings, are low maintenance, virtually fireproof, and a strong barrier to sound.
This home, finished in 2009, fuses Hawaiian tradition with some of the latest innovations in sustainable architecture. The house is situated high enough to provide spectacular views, but low enough to blend in with the landscape of pili grass and ironwood trees.

The project starts from the relationship between a clear geometrical shape –like an artificial rock on the ground- and the irregular landscape on which it is built. The cube resembles the geological formations of the area. The house opens progressively to the sea from the ground floor to the upper floors, thus the connection with the exterior in some spaces is more restrained (as in ground floor) and then the house opens up in the upper floors. Interior inhabitation is privileged as a shelter in a severe climate, seeking to protect the inhabitants from the steady wind.
The interior spatiality is generated from simple geometric shapes that with complex operations produce different opening degrees to the wind, the sights, the sun and the activities. The bedrooms and a common area are placed in the ground floor, while social areas such as dining room, living room and kitchen are placed on the upper floor. There is also a terraced garden-roof with different levels that generate varied spatial situations both from the inside and in the outside and also allow the entry of sunlight needed in cold seasons. This relationship between the upper level and the terraced roof allows the creation of a special connection with the sea and to generate a higher social level that reinforces the implantation strategy of the house.
