The design creates a new perimeter block, incorporating the existing harbourside houses into a new residential enclave using new houses of a similar form and scale. Three storey apartment buildings at the north west & south west corners take advantage of the views towards the village and across the coast and also form gateways from the village to the beach along the existing Coastal Path. The design is redolent of a ‘lighthouse village’ where groups of low outbuildings and houses form a separate self-contained group in the proximity of the nearby coastal light. The inner sheltered courtyard contains gardens and parking.

The new buildings are in keeping with the marine town setting, with pale seaside render walls, minimal eaves, stone capped chimneys, glazed storm porches, dark teak stain windows and doors with ship style circular openings. The materials are all drawn entirely from the local Welsh vernacular with pennant rubble stone & render walls, stone cills and lintels, and slate roofs. Particular attention has been paid to the boundary treatments with rubble stone and rendered walls along the harbour road edge and timber knee rail, fences and bollards along the coastal edge.
