We were thrilled, but not at all surprised, to hear that Lovelife Projects took out the House Alterations and Additions ($6 million – $7 million) category at the recent 2026 Master Builders Association of NSW Excellence in Housing Awards for this remarkable Palm Beach residence! We're delighted to have played a part in bringing GLS House to life.
Designed by CM Studio, GLS House is an ambitious reimagining of a traditional Palm Beach residence. Drawing inspiration from the breezy elegance of a Caribbean villa, the extensive renovation and addition combines lofty pavilions, raked ceilings and expansive glazing with extraordinary views across Palm Beach, Pittwater and the Pacific Ocean.
Acacia crafted an extensive suite of bespoke windows and doors in New Guinea Rosewood, finished in white to complement the home's refined coastal aesthetic. From oversized multi-panel sliding doors to complex cavity sliders, the joinery plays an integral role in connecting the light-filled interiors to the pool, terraces and surrounding landscape.
Behind the seemingly effortless design was a project of considerable technical complexity. Oversized joinery, challenging site access and intricate architectural detailing called for precision manufacturing, careful planning and close collaboration with the project team across six construction stages.
