Heartily welcomed into Courtyard Residence’s design are influences of coastal serenity that challenge the traditional white beach house aesthetic. Rather, soft sandy tones of timber, textiles, stone and rammed earth enrobe the home, proposing calming permanency that communes easily with the natural world.
Establishing an apt foundation for the home's earthen inspiration, our La Roche limestone tiles form the interior flooring. The stone stitches seamlessly with the home’s aesthetic and ethos; celebrating the inimitable imperfection and raw richness that arise from natural environmental processes.
Emanating a subtle caramel hue and well-acquired character, our La Roche tiles duly complement the residence with their lightly distressed appearance and thermal properties. They are shaped and crafted to impart distinct textural character, enriching spaces with organic soul and augmenting this modern design with unexpected softness.
“The imperfect and textural finish in the natural stone flooring and its slightly tumbled edge combines durability and beauty,” says Jessica Corbett from Wolveridge Architects. “It speaks to the attention and craft that has gone into the build and that is visible in the selection of natural and earthy materials used throughout.”

Also adorned with Eco Outdoor flooring, the courtyard’s walkways and pool area have been mosaicked with Endicott crazy paving. Exhibiting intriguing irregularity that punctuates the otherwise linear features of the home, the pavers journey curved paths with puzzle-piece precision.
Informal, uncluttered yet abounding in texture, Courtyard Residence’s considered materiality underlies the impact of its grounding timelessness. Resonant in their perpetuity, the home’s solid stone flooring and rammed earth walls interplay with the softness of light and shadow, welcoming a sense of soft tranquillity to radiate throughout.
