Geographe

Coastal architecture shaped by its setting.

 

Geographe is a collection of 28 residences positioned on Geographe Bay Road in Dunsborough, designed to respond to the character and natural beauty of its coastal setting.

 

Designed by DMG Architecture, the project draws inspiration from the surrounding landscape through a combination of curved forms, natural materials and a considered palette of light, neutral tones. The architecture incorporates landscaped spaces and generous outdoor areas, creating a strong connection between the residences, the parkland and the wider coastal environment.

 

With Dunsborough’s beaches, town centre and surrounding South West landscape close by, Geographe reflects a relaxed approach to contemporary coastal living.

Designed in response to place

 

Geographe takes its cues from the coastal landscape, with flowing architectural forms and a material palette inspired by the colours and textures of Dunsborough.

Architecture with a softer expression

 

Undulating curves and rounded edges give the building a distinctive form, while brass, timber and finely crafted brickwork introduce warmth and texture to the façade.

Connected to the outdoors

 

Expansive balconies, generous windows and open-plan living spaces create a natural connection between the interiors and the surrounding landscape.

Life in Dunsborough

 

A coastal setting close to Geographe Bay, parkland, local cafés, dining and the established amenities of Dunsborough.

Architecture shaped by the coastal landscape.

 

Designed by DMG Architecture, Geographe responds to its surroundings through an architectural language that is both refined and distinctly coastal.

 

The curved form of the façade reflects the movement of a wave, while brass, timber and finely crafted brickwork create a warm and tactile material palette. Light, neutral tones reference the soft colours of Dunsborough Beach, while integrated greenery brings another layer of connection to the natural environment.

 

The architecture responds to its parkside setting through considered landscaping and a strong relationship between the built form, streetscape and surrounding landscape.

Designed for coastal living.

 

The residences at Geographe combine natural materials, considered proportions and a palette designed to complement their coastal setting.

 

Open-plan living and dining areas connect with generous balconies through large sliding doors and full-height windows, bringing natural light into the interiors and strengthening the relationship between indoor and outdoor spaces.

 

Kitchens feature stone surfaces, warm timber joinery and integrated appliances, while reeded joinery and sculptural stone elements introduce texture and detail. Bedrooms continue the understated material palette with warm timber, soft finishes and expansive windows.

 

Connected to the landscape.

 

Landscape and architecture work together at Geographe, with greenery integrated throughout the project to soften the built form and strengthen its relationship with the surrounding environment.

 

The coastal setting is reflected in the materiality and architectural forms, while balconies and expansive windows create opportunities to connect with views towards Geographe Bay, surrounding parkland and the treetops beyond.

 

At ground level, a dedicated retail space forms part of the development, contributing to the relationship between the project and its local setting.

Close to the coast and connected to the South West.

 

Geographe occupies a coastal position on Geographe Bay Road in Dunsborough, with the bay and surrounding parkland forming an immediate part of its setting.

 

Dunsborough’s town centre, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities are close by, while the wider South West offers beaches, walking trails, wineries and natural landscapes to explore.

 

The location brings together the convenience of an established coastal town with the natural beauty and slower rhythm of the South West.

A completed expression of coastal living.

 

Geographe brings together considered coastal architecture, natural materials and a strong connection to place in one of Dunsborough’s established coastal settings.
