Saffire-Freycinet, a US$30 million resort near Coles Bay on the Freycinet Peninsula, opened in June 2010 and has a distinct design.
Designed by award-winning Tasmanian architects Morris Nunn and Associates, the buildings are conceptually organic, reflecting the
surrounding environment.
The roof is made from curved Tasmanian wood beams, built in a ribbed structure with ply overlay which forms a smooth underlay for
the Polymea membrane. Although complex in concept, the build and look of the roof present a very simple view without dominating the
entire structure. The glass used has a very low percentage of reflectivity, allowing for maximum impact when viewing the surrounding
coastal beauty both during the day and at night.
The interior design for Saffire by Chhada Siembieda is inspired by the natural environment, a pristine coastal landscape. The base
palette of materials - stone and timber - closely relates to the landscape with colours, hues and textures that create an almost
seamless feel between the inside and outside. Among the custom designed and crafted furniture are original, classic contemporary
pieces by luminaries such as Ray and Charles Eames.
Each luxuriously appointed suite has been designed to maintain utmost privacy while taking in the views and natural light. Inside
you will find the highest quality in finishes with an eclectic mix of classic and contemporary furnishings providing a distinct feeling of
coastal freedom unique to Saffire.
