Slaughterhouse – The Luxury Beach House Design in Maui

Located close to a well-known surfing spot, Slaughterhouse Beach House expands the concept of a traditional surfing hut with three connected huts – general living quarters, guest suites, and a main sleeping area. The structure’s walls are constructed from rammed earth. In this process, different local earth-based mixtures are packed together, and the resulting striated layers are visible both inside and outside the building. The walls blend in with the surroundings, are low maintenance, virtually fireproof, and a strong barrier to sound.
This home, finished in 2009, fuses Hawaiian tradition with some of the latest innovations in sustainable architecture. The house is situated high enough to provide spectacular views, but low enough to blend in with the landscape of pili grass and ironwood trees.

Luxury House in the Caribbean

This house in the Caribbean is sitting on an island – La Romana, amidst Nature’s bounty. The house epitomizes simplicity in all spheres but has a luxurious feel to it nonetheless. Running along the 7000 sq meter coastline of the island, one can feel the enormity of this project jutting out of the pictures as well.




Beige tones and a beach-like pool enhance the aesthetics of the house. The large Italian windows bring the outdoors inside and the cool breeze envelopes the house all day! Ideally, this luxury house in the Caribbean makes for the perfect holiday home, but it would serve well as a party house too!

The house blends well with the outdoors and one can experience the continuity as the whole landscape fits perfectly together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. The grandeur of the house is the highlight!

Futuristic Modern Beach House Design




A home on the beach is everyone’s dream but few have the vision to make one such a stark material contrast to its surroundings. However, the shape itself was inspired by the sands of far-off desert dunes – filled with small changes in angle and semi-organic shapes. In a way, it fits in with the beach surroundings while remaining aloft from them moreso than many beach house designs. Interior volumes are, on the whole, modernist, simple and white while the exterior and partially interior spaces connecting the house to the beach are freed up to related to the water and have more varied and naturalistic materiality.
