The Youngers’ new house is "solid and protecting, yet connected with the vast landscape and vista across Dunalley Bay," says Tanner. Built from steel, Tasmanian oak timber, glass, and precast concrete, the semi-modular house has two distinct wings, one for sleeping and one for living. The pavilions are separated by a long deck, which serves as both entry and axis to Mt. Wellington and the capital city of Hobart in the distance.
Simon and Sarah Younger had only toyed with the idea of building a new beach house beside their shack in Dunalley, Tasmania, when the property was razed by a bushfire in 2013. After the smoke cleared, the Youngers turned to architect Stuart Tanner to design a refuge that would make them feel safe and still realize their vacation house wish list.

I guess having a vacation there is very worth it. By seeing the construction of the house, I can say that it is such a great pleasure to rest in there. The structure too, seems strong and enough model for a "beside the beach" house. House made of cements will help future circumstances like tsunami. Glass doors will also add up to the beauty of it because visitors will be able to see the outside beauty of their rest house.
