I love the restrained luxury of this house. Nothing is loud or screams for attention but every window, every choice of material, every architectural element offers something for the eye to love.

[@borzger]

every video by The local project looks like something from different world

[@chronic_daydreamer]

The life of the rich IS a different world. They have access to the things that make life more comfortable and beautiful. Getting a taste of it is like living in a different dimension.

[@Manj711]

Completely on point. There is something about the cinematography and narration as well , it all comes together as an intricate beautiful package and story.

[@pndw2003]

so true~

[@dcrump]

Indeed

[@estherkitabire8609]

Absolutely in love with the airy lackadaisical feel that floats through this house! Superb taste and choices from the architectural/design teams!one of my faves on this channel. thank you always

[@TheLocalProject]

We're glad to hear it!

[@janelte]

That would have been a demanding, exacting brief with enormous constraints. The results show none of the limitations that must have been imposed. Really well done.

[@Minimalism225]

This home holds many minimalistic features which creates a very comforting environment. The ecosystem surrounding this home has a mix of the beachside and the jungle atmosphere which is truly rare at least from what I've seen. I love all of the materials used in this project and how the facade masks what awaits behind the entrance. The wood slats create a blank slate for anyone to image what may be sitting behind them. Well done to Workroom and all the collaborators on this project. Thank you local project!

[@nikkilogan7726]

Wow! I,m blown away by the beautiful open space! The nature & the view adds the beauty to this home. Thanks Local Project

[@carolarellano6396]

What else can I say that hasn't been said? This house is one of the best I've seen. The careful attention to detail, the minimalist but certainly not bland design, the beautiful location and the calmness it brings. Simply stunning!

[@MultiCornballs]

I think this is my favorite Local Project Home

[@DreamyDwellingDesigns]

Absolutely stunning and beautiful, decor is so elegant. Thanks for sharing.

[@mophillips9358]

I love everything about this house. Especially how it complements the landscape around it & the fact that they were completely mindful of respecting the natural environment💯

[@iahorvath]

Well considered, beautiful home. Kudos!

[@TheLocalProject]

We agree!

The Local Project, This is amazing! I can't stop smiling!

[@scottstorm7765]

The perfect classy beach house!

[@TheLocalProject]

It really is!

[@TheAndrewBen]

Beautifully designed

[@TheLocalProject]

Glad you like it!

[@thatthotho]

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you. Longing for the day that I'm not living in a small overpriced apt surrounded by concrete and crime

' ...a kind of unfolding of a three-dimensional language...' Of all creatives, architects are among the most verbal about their works.

[@estherkitabire8609]

The best ones are poets with materials

[@harishsudhakarpawar-uu9xo]

So, meticulously designed as if the architect has put his soul in it .

[@MrOso36]

I really like the dining chairs.

[@mortlocktimber_]

Thanks for the story of this superb project, John. The blackbutt timber is really fortunate to be a part of this material palette.

[@karmin393]

I love everything about this house, especially that there's a glimpse of the outside from almost any point in the house. I love nature and sunlight so this would be a must for me ❤️ manifesting a house like this in the future

[@TheLocalProject]

Glad you like it!

[@kidMclean]

Stunning, would love to live in that environment ❤

[@TheLocalProject]

It really is!

[@jtdave8721]

The entrance is a 100000/10 I like it so much.......

[@rialtonetwrk]

Love that main entrance to bits

[@SpringBreak-3D]

Great work !!

[@briancanbefound]

Another brilliant LP tour. Lovely stuff.

[@TheLocalProject]

Thank you kindly!

[@007emv]

Such a beautiful home , very peaceful and welcoming home. Probably the best I seen

[@gocarlogo]

Calling it a rainforest is such a stretch. Other than that what a beautiful home.

[@raph3156]

If I could choose a home of my own, it would be one similar to this. The location, the style...its magnificent.

[@Ren-1979]

An amazing project. Despite being a movable building the living room is really large. The only thing I don't like about this project are the wall lamps that look like balloons. Everything else is beautiful. GJ.

[@TheSushmaHomeSellingTeam]

Can't believe what this home have. ❤✨

[@stefan-rn5kz]

Absolutely breathtaking. Stefan Denser

[@ElikeIke]

Really a timeless beauty. Very liveable

[@PlanB52]

Wonderful work! Im inspired from this kind of house's.

[@2-_-B-_-continued]

This home should be used as a location for a peace summit between all the warring countries

[@cksspb815]

Amazing design. Beautiful fusion of architectural design and unbelievable natural landscape. How unique to have the beach & rainforest.

[@dianachern4234]

Wow, such a beautiful project ❤

[@clubsobri]

It's a really cool home. In a beautiful place.

[@МаринаМангушева-н2у]

Прекрасно!❤

[@JoeNielsen44]

Absolutely beautiful and serene! 😍

[@jamark13]

What are the pendant light fixtures?

[@J.e.f.f.r.e.y]

It’s inspiring to see what’s possible!

[@douglascarl2283]

I wanna live in a house like this ❤

[@darien33]

Es mi casa ideal, sin duda. Esla combinación perfecta de adentro y afuera, de materiales, de sencillez y lujo, mobiliario exquisito, confort y energía. Predilecta del canal. Enhorabuena ¡¡¡. Hermosa y equilibrada

[@imianco8079]

exciting to see the most expensive is a great architect designed one!!

[@MissQuite]

Stunning ❤

This is one of my favorites. Beautiful

I'm a beach and, moreover, a rural person. This is a go for me. Great work done.

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

Needs a bigger door.

[@zukzworld]

Beautiful house, thank you for sharing! ❤

[@gbsantosh6988]

Make a house tour near waterfall please🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@TheLocalProject]

Will do!

[@jonathanponsford]

It built on the old abattoir

[@chance10234]

Most expensive home but using timber screening all over instead of firm aluminium wood like battens from Deco or Knotwood which will protect home better from salt water and no maintenance

[@thejaideeparora]

I have found my house!!

[@Aprilsraven629]

As beautiful as it is, its still cold & stark it lacks homely comforts like art, sculptures, rugs, personable items like photos or travel momentous....as for transportable that I'd like to see and find our more, because if you have to relocate there's always time constraints sometimes hours not days or weeks therefore you would need all the trades on hand undo every fixture and fitting and render safe for transport, trucks, police, electricity company so many people - moving a dwelling takes weeks often moths to plan...yep that house ain't going anywhere except into the sea

[@joppedewitte5943]

What is the name of the song / piece of music that starts at 00:31?

[@초코모카슈가멍냥집]

wish airbnb to experience…

[@Julianar1985]

A stunning house however, if I'm going to be honest, I'm totally distracted by the scale and repetition of the globe wall lights! 🙃

[@Browneyedboi]

Nobody is doing it like The Local Project 😮

[@TheLocalProject]

🙏

[@Stickybutton]

I wonder how you would ‘move’ the house though.

[@andrewsemple692]

Beautiful home but I wouldn’t be able to stop thinking about the erosion issue

[@yeahdefinitely6607]

The spa I get, but with the beach on your doorstep I don’t get the pool, but that’s just me

[@ianibrahim]

Yowzah !! Nuff said..

[@elephantintheroom5678]

Beautiful. But I wonder how much of that coastal rainforest was destroyed to build that huge structure.... It shouldn't have been allowed, even with all the regulations imposed. The architects are obviously very talented, though.

[@farhiaelmoge6690]

ive found my dream home ✨

[@khan-zt3pc]

What if some unknown people comes in from the beach side?

[@protacioarchitects9737]

I'm wondering how will they address mosquitos in these designs. Or maybe they simply don't have any

[@vangelissopamena]

Uhhmmm… Bedroooom????😌

[@karolinecosta.]

❤❤❤

[@Inaya0786]

This house has a very Japanese inspired vibe.

[@Sophie-db1ko]

Beautiful project. I wonder what was the climate change risk factor in its concept and building process.

[@thescranline]

Gorgeous home but Jesus tax the rich

[@ommanipadmehung3014]

Hahaha exactly

[@ivanklymenko]

🥰

[@ashmaffick]

"Byron Bay’s Most Expensive Home" is so not a flex (also definitely not true). It's actually such a gross and embarrassing claim? Also, am I the only person who is confused about having a boring pool eating up the footprint of the outdoor space when the house is literally positioned next to one of the world's most coveted beaches?

[@craigdavid6519]

where's the garage for my 2 Lambos??

[@cowboygypsey]

I remember, when I was 16yo on my first surf trip there when it was a beautiful country town with non of these wankers living there.

[@supernoveau]

Unfortunately this house is going to be in the ocean within 10 years, that dune is eroding very rapidly.

[@michaelb7647]

Why does every architect have those glasses and a plain black tee? Is it a requirement of this channel?

[@ivanoblomov6072]

Очкарик больше себя снимает чем дом, влюбленный в себя

[@vnkman4391]

Lovely. Pool is waaaaaaaay too small. And has a cheap interior of the pool too.

[@krispipermel]

its ok , yes beautiful materia;ls etc ,but seems to lack some thing, no X factor

[@wallabybob3020]

It’s official - I’m poor.

[@pindebraende]

let me guess: the house is deeply rooted in the landscape and there's a random shot of a whale?

[@TheLocalProject]

You bet 😉

[@kw8263]

I would have thought the Hemsworth residence is Byron Bay's most expensive home...

[@Ker-l2v]

I would rather be a poor man living somewhere in the middle of the Mediterranean.

[@GraemeChapman-d6z]

This house is clearly too big and decadent and therefore not very sustainable. This house clearly doesn’t fit in with the natural coastal landscape at all. I’m surprised the Byron Council approved of this house being built on dunes that are very susceptible to coastal erosion. Why didn’t they build a more modest coastal dwelling that reflects the laidback down to earth Byron lifestyle. Byron Bay could definitely do without these type of ostentatious developments.

[@davidchannon6004]

Exactly. It’s a suburban McMansion with a wooden screen at the front to hide the beige boxy architecture. I wonder how much of the rainforest they excavated.

[@LTH099]

Owner is chasing $45m, been on the market since Oct 23. There are far more expensive homes in the area.

[@pammy35]

Awful furnishings sorry

[@L0U1SE]

Lovely house. Byron is super pretentious thesedays … unfortunately it has lost its charm 😢

[@erikleypoldt8275]

Sense of, sense of, sense of, same every time. zzzz

[@Solucerus]

An item is only worth the value a buyer is willing to spend, an I can't see anyone wasting money on a sad design like this. It's characterless, Was it designed by chatGPT an that's why it looks so generic?

[@CG-99]

The most expensive house in Byron Bay....really??? Did somebody ignore the Hemsworth spread??

[@JohnLee-db9zt]

This doesn’t look or feel like a home. It’s more of a museum or hotel/resort. When will these architects learn to design a proper home?

[@teryyy5052]

This can’t be.. isn’t Thor’s house def more expensive? So perhaps his is the most expensive in Byron Bay (area)…

[@normalguy7898]

Its on a main road...

[@LTH099]

If you call a main road a quiet cul de sac that ends at the beach, sure.
