My clients had moved from Sydney and found an apartment which had a great city location, large balcony and a fantastic river view, however, it needed a major renovation.

We started by looking at the space and identified ways we could maximise the living area and storage. The kitchen living area was opened up concealing the existing hydraulics column as a cabinet, using part of bedroom 3 to allow the fridge and pantry more space and turning this bedroom into the study. The front door was relocated into the centre of the space and replaced with a pivot door, allowing an area for a large storage unit to be built. Light coloured custom cabinetry, stone benchtops and engineered timber flooring was used throughout enhancing the overall space. Existing sliding doors onto the balcony were replaced with bifold doors blending the outdoor and indoor spaces. Wallpaper, sheer curtains, feature bar stools and console were the finishing touches to this space.

The master bedroom had the existing sliding doors removed, facilitating an area for more wardrobe storage and new bifold doors opening out onto the balcony. Custom cabinetry wardrobes, bedside tables and above bed storage were all designed to increase storage and functionality. The engineered timber floor was carried through into the bedrooms with wallpaper and a custom bedhead adding to the space. The small ensuite and combined bathroom laundry were fully renovated featuring marble look tiles, gold mosaics, woodmatt cabinetry and stone benchtops. Wall hung vanities with mirrored shaving cabinets and headed towel rails were added.

Outdoor furniture and rugs were added to the expansive balcony which has great view to Newfarm and Kangaroo Point.
