Holiday home The Dune House

Dune House is situated near the village of Thropeness in Suffolk, on England’s eastern coast. Nestled into the dunes, the house offers fantastic views across the sea. The roof landscape is reminiscent of those on other local buildings, but its complex geometric structures are nonetheless unique and contemporary. Each of the four gables contains a bedroom, with a free-standing bathtub and an en-suite bathroom. The windows are positioned in such a way that you can enjoy beautiful views of the landscape and sea – either from the bed or the bathtub. Wood features prominently within all the bedrooms, enhancing their homely character. In contrast to these retreats, concrete, glass and aluminum have been used on the ground floor. The all-round glazing provides panoramic views from every area: from the living area with its own fireplace, to the dining area and open kitchen. The house’s corners can be opened with large sliding doors, which adds to the floating impression of the upper floor.
