Cooyou Close | Plus Architecture

Cooyou Close is a collection of 24 villas and apartments located a two–hour flight north of Perth, in the stunning coastal town of Exmouth.

Developer, Celsius, recognised the appeal of Exmouth as an international tourism destination as it is home to world heritage–listed Ningaloo Marine Park, with Exmouth’s population of around 2,200 residents growing to 20,000 during peak season.

Identifying a gap in the market for accommodation in the remote location, Celsius enlisted Plus with the task of designing a collection of properties that would provide flexible accommodation options, with a focus on a connection to nature.

Exmouth is a place of extremes with droughts, floods, bushfires, and high temperatures. We balanced our response to climate and context, by delivering a resort–like concept that would encourage social interaction between residents.

Thoughtfully considered amenities create a ‘home away from home’ while the enactment of sustainable design principles ensures thermal comfort year–round.
