Form, function and fun combine in this dynamic cantilevered building perched on the edge of the Waimarama dunes. The visual strength and positioning of the structure oozes confidence and control with all sightlines open for the surf-life saving club members, while allowance is made for public walkways that may pass under the building in the future. The colours and materials blend the national surf life saving colours with hardwearing, low-maintenance materials that will enable this important vantage post to remain in place for years to come.
