A new house will be built at Broadbeach with an unusual feature – it will be upside down.
The building, known as the House Down Under, will be built at Pacific Fair as part of a temporary attraction which will offer users the ability to appear in quirky photos.
It will be created inside the carpark which fronts Hooker Boulevard, replacing six carparking spaces.
A development application was submitted to the Gold Coast City Council this week for approval because of the height of the house’s structure.
“The plans provided detail the implementation of a temporary attraction for the Pacific Fair Shopping Centre, known as the “House Down Under” photograph experience,” the plans read.
“The plans detail the temporary attraction operating within the Shopping Centre, being an inverted “tiny home”, which offers a photograph experience to visitors of the centre”.
It will become Australia’s second House Down Under, with another already in place at Sydney’s Rouse Hill Town Centre.
