Mermaid Beach
Mermaid Beach is characterised by tightly held coastal land, a mix of original beach houses and substantial contemporary homes, and close relationships between neighbours. Residential design must use width, light, privacy, landscape and durable coastal materials with unusual precision.

Generosity without excess on tightly held land.
City Plan Version 13 maps different height and residential conditions across Mermaid Beach, together with foreshore setback, waterfront controls, flood assessment, low-elevation land and parts of the light-rail urban-renewal area. These layers are not shared by every address. Before deciding whether to retain, extend or replace a house, the current property mapping, site dimensions, existing approvals and relationship to adjoining development should be checked as one feasibility exercise.
Mermaid Beach homes benefit from precision more than spectacle. A well-placed stair, courtyard or change in ceiling height can bring daylight deep into a narrow plan, while layered screens and planting protect close neighbours. The goal is a composed sequence from street to interior to sheltered garden, with coastal durability resolved quietly in the detailing.
Considering a Gold Coast project?
TURNER+ welcomes enquiries for new homes, major renovations, extensions, coastal design, sloping sites and pre-purchase architectural advice across the Gold Coast.
Architecture shaped by climate, outlook and landscape.
City Plan mapping can identify zoning, building height, dwelling-house, flood, coastal, bushfire, environmental and other considerations. These controls are property-specific, so early advice begins with the address and current planning information rather than a suburb-wide assumption.

Good residential design on the Gold Coast balances shade, filtered light, ventilation, privacy and durable materials with the way a home connects to garden, water or terrain. The response changes significantly between an ocean-facing apartment, a canal property, an established coastal street and a hinterland site.

我们从事住宅、公寓及公共项目的设计。
有些项目始于一块土地。
有些始于一栋已有些老旧的房子。也有些始于一个更大的想法——如何让一个地方变得更好、更适合使用。
我们的工作,是认真倾听、清晰表达、充分推敲每一个设计想法,并帮助将这些想法一步步转化为真正可以建成的建筑。
