Some places are too special to rush.
And some projects are better left as an open secret⌠for now.
Once in a lifetime locations deserve once in a lifetime projects.
We came to the Mentawais with a vision already in motion and preliminary plans in hand, but before taking the next step we needed to feel the land, the energy, the rhythm of the ocean and the rawness of this place for ourselves. Some locations immediately tell you what theyâre meant to become. This was one of them.
Right in front of one of mentawais most iconic waves something quietly extraordinary is beginning to take shape.
Not defined by any one category.
Just a deep respect for place, architecture and experience.
Something intentionally understated, deeply connected to the landscape, and designed to feel timeless from the day itâs born.
A place where architecture disappears into nature.
Where mornings revolve around the ocean, afternoons slow down completely, and the outside world fades into the background.
Built with the intention of creating something people will speak about long before they ever experience it.
This already feels like one of those once in a generation projects. @hga.architects@_mactech@taibuddha
Unveiling the 2026 HIA Australian Home of the Year.
Perched on a dramatic Gold Coast cliff edge, @villacloudbreak by @mactechconstructions transforms a highly exposed site into a striking five-level residence.
Carved into the landscape, the home balances privacy, durability and design precision, from a basement wellness retreat opening to hinterland views, to a rooftop terrace complete with pool, spa and helipad.
A central ribbon of glass draws natural light through every level, while carefully considered materials and construction details deliver a home that feels both robust and refined.
This award is proudly partnered by @csr_limited

Nestled in the lush embrace of Currumbin Valley this @jaredpooledesign Canopies 1247 project is a celebration of nature and design. Elevated above the creekâs edge, this sculptural home floats on concrete pillars, blending seamlessly with the rock formations and rainforest canopy. Weâre thrilled to start bringing this one-of-a-kind vision to life with our clients and partners, crafting a home that is as awe-inspiring as the valley itself.
An architectural statement set between ocean and skyline.
Perched above the coastline, this residence captures sunrise over the water and sunset behind the city â a rare balance of nature and urban energy. Every line, material, and detail was considered, delivering a home that doesnât just sit in its environment, but commands it.
This isnât just luxury. This is location, design, and execution at the highest level. @jaysonpatedesign@icon_consulting_engineers
