Where I live in Burleigh Waters, near Jellurgal, has an eclectic mix of architecture that fascinates me. Modern coastal builds, single story homes of the 1970s-90s - many now renovated, luxury houses on the canals, and the beach shacks.
Ah, these beach shacks!
They captivate me, not only for the way they contrast the muscular, ‘coastal lux’ builds of today. They’re simple, functional and modest. With their weathered aesthetic, they’re frequently made of fibro/asbestos materials and timber, painted in bright, coastal colors.
My heart jumps into a smile and my soul meanders with curiosity every time I see a beach shack. I had to paint the joy of living amongst these nostalgic delights!
This house is 40 Symonds Road, Burleigh Heads.
