Description
The Scarborough Surf Life Saving Club anchors the redeveloped Scarborough beachfront in Perth, Western Australia, with a community facility shaped through close collaboration with the foreshore redevelopment team. From the project's inception and the first briefing workshops onward, Hames Sharley worked alongside the stakeholders driving the wider beachfront project so the brief fully reflected the club's operational needs and the wider community's expectations for the site.
Surf clubs hold a distinctive place in Australian civic life, combining lifesaving operations with social and cultural use. Hames Sharley treated that dual role as the starting point for the architectural moves, designing a building that reads as part of the coastal setting and as a generous, public-facing piece of beachfront infrastructure.
Delivered at a project budget of USD 13,000,000, the team brought together Georgiou Group as builder, Arup as civil consultant, Wood & Grieve as mechanical engineer, and Philip Chun on building surveying.
