About this space

Welcome to IBYA—a purpose-built, Palm Springs-inspired pool and poolhouse that brings high-impact design and seamless outdoor flow to the northern suburbs of the Gold Coast. Surrounded by palms, cactus gardens, and uninterrupted bushland views, this architectural outdoor zone is made for bold, sun-drenched shoots across fashion, swimwear, lifestyle, and content campaigns.

Every inch of this location has been designed with creators in mind. The centrepiece is an 8m x 4m pool with a 3m underwater viewing window—perfect for editorial water shots, underwater video, or high-concept product styling. Separate spa and wading areas offer tonal variety and creative flexibility, whether you’re shooting families, resort wear, or luxury wellness content.

Framing the pool is a large deck and landscaped cactus garden, delivering that distinctively dry-climate aesthetic. Just steps away, a sunken firepit sits under mature palms—providing an evening-ready, textural moment that contrasts beautifully with the clean lines and bright light of the pool zone.

The private poolhouse includes a moody lounge and bar setup, along with a luxurious bathroom for talent prep or styling. The adjoining alfresco area adds another dimension to your shoot, with a concrete benchtop, bar fridges, built-in BBQ, and a handmade timber dining table—all positioned for full-day sun and open sky. Whether you’re capturing a laid-back editorial spread or setting up a hosted campaign shoot, this zone flexes effortlessly between lifestyle, product, and film.

With all-day light and open vistas, IBYA is a dream setting for teams looking to capture elevated outdoor content in a setting that feels both retro-inspired and timelessly fresh. The styling is clean, the features are shoot-savvy, and the entire location is thoughtfully zoned to allow movement, reset, and impact across a full-day production.
