Key design features
A simple, sophisticated materials palette
Selamanya House is an exciting, unique architecturally designed property, which showcases modern features and concepts, whilst celebrating its beautiful surroundings. Featuring a muted, simple palette of colours and materials, the Selamanya House project is all about elevating traditional seaside home designs to a new level with luxurious touches.
The incredible aesthetic appeal of Selamanya House has been achieved using a simple selection of materials, like Millboard Limed Oak decking, Stone, Timber screens and Weatherboards, which offer functional benefits as well as producing a distinctive look.

Weathered Millboard decking
Millboard decking in Limed Oak adds classic coastal vibes to this Gold Coast residence while promoting functionality and durability and developing traditional waterfront architectural expressions. Using pool decking and making a design statement with a carefully curated material palette creates a striking property, which also delivers on practicality.
Interior design
The exterior of the house is visually arresting, with oversized glazed panels to maximise enjoyment of the views and let natural light flood the living spaces, but the interior is also a triumph. A mesmerising internal courtyard brings the outside in and creates a sense of being part of the landscape while high-end furniture and fittings and simple, chic, coastal interior design elements ensure a timeless, homely feel. Balconies, internal walkways and terraces actively encourage outdoor living while providing sensational vistas from every room.
