Robert Simeoni is the diligent and methodical architect behind this building – Seaford Life Saving Club. It’s known for delivering a well considered building on a tight budget.

Here, in the cafe (a commercial necessity for viability as a public space – more and more common these days), are ply walls and ply ceilings – it exudes a warmth of natural materials.

Who would use plasterboard these days? It requires another trade to go out on site; will construction reduce costs by utilising fewer trades to do more work?
