| 81 The design of the home succeeds in integrating the house, including its access, with the surrounding landscape, combining privacy with openness, and maintaining a deep connection to its coastal surroundings MC Architecture Studio ARCHITECTURE “The path takes you through a courtyard sheltered from the prevailing easterly, where Melissa has done the most beautiful planting, so you’re surrounded by an oasis of greenery and calm. It’s a balanced, sculptural build, and Melissa’s soft landscaping helps define its strong architectural forms.” Built by Parsons Construction and featuring specialised interior work, including kitchen design by Davinia Sutton, the home’s earthy palette combines with natural textures to give the sense that the building truly belongs in its landscape. Sixth Degree received a high commendation at last year’s Trends International Design Awards, where it was praised for its material harmony. It was also a finalist, along with some serious competition from expansive (and expensive) luxury homes, in the Coastal section of the 2026 Home of the Year Awards.
