COASTAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Coastal Resilience At Port Fairy Port Fairy is one of the most important recreational destinations in Victoria, located along the Great Ocean Road.

This project spatially assesses Port Fairy with the aid of geographical information system (GIS) and develops long-term coastal resilience strategies as climate change and sea level rise are causing increased inundation, erosion of sand dunes, and significant biodiversity loss.

ZONE 5 : DUNE RESTORATION SOUTH BEACHES Zone 5 is vulnerable to coastal erosion and wave run up as it contains a lot of wave-exposed sand dunes. Severe erosion removes frontal dunes, forming an offshore sand bar. Restoring the dunes through revegetation can improve stability, resilience, visual appeal, and biodiversity.

Coastal Infrastructure

South Beaches’ sand dunes form a dynamic coastal ecosystem, providing habitat and a protective barrier against wind and sea.

Without the vegetation to hold the dunes, dunes will break apart, leaving a “dune blowout”.

Restoration measures include:

The design emphasizes space and comfort, tailored to the homeowner’s pets and family needs. It incorporates soft curves to balance aesthetics with functionality, creating an inviting and harmonious space. A loft was added above the guest room and corridor, and a platform was built in the master bedroom to provide extra storage.
