Cliff House Concept by Modscape

Everybody wants an ocean view home but the problem with many of them is the fact that parts of the view are generally obstructed by something. That “something” can be another home, trees, or even utility poles. The Cliff House is a pretty unique and awesome concept created by an Australian based company called Modscape. What makes the Cliff House unique is that it doesn’t sit on top of a cliff, close to the edge. No, it literally hangs off the side of a cliff. Pretty wild, right?

The Cliff House is a five-storey modular home which is only theoretical but there are clients who have approached Modscape to explore the idea of actually building this in the coastal areas of Australia. The design is inspired by the way barnacles cling to the hull of a ship.

In Modscape’s design, the Cliff House concept is visualized as a natural extension of the cliff face instead of an addition to the landscape to create an absolute connection with the ocean. Building the home off the side of a cliff would be near impossible which is why the modular idea was implement for this concept home. The entire home is prefabricated and the modules can be stacked and anchored into the cliff face via engineered steel pins.

You can access the home through a carport on the very top floor where an elevator vertically connects the user to each floor in the home. On the inside of the home, each living area features a minimalistic furnishing approach to ensure an amazing view of the ocean and to create a unique experience.

The fifth floor is where the car is parked and the entry point into the home. Just below that, the fourth floor features the foyer, kitchen, and the dining/living room. On the third floor is one of the bedrooms featuring two beds and one bathroom. The second floor features the master bedroom featuring a large bed and an en-suite. And the lowest floor features a spa and a barbecue area where you can impress the hell out of your friends.

The entire idea seems pretty amazing but good luck finding that ideal spot which can actually be purchased for this purpose. Since it’s a concept, there is no approximate price. For other design ideas, feel free to check out the Modscape website.
