A warm and inviting open-plan space where dining, kitchen, and lounge flow seamlessly. Light oak floors, a rounded stone island, and natural light create a calm, minimalist atmosphere balanced with subtle texture.

The master bedroom is the darkest room in the house, so we needed to be aware of lighting and thoughtful about colour choices. The colours in this project are warm, rich, and beautiful. The curtains were Chrissie's idea— rich velvet in warm, beautiful colours. The detail of the white stitching on the bedspread picks up on the hand details of white stitching through the drapes - it's a lovely connection. The bedspread was a long time in the making. It's a very lovely, quilted piece and it's reversible, — on the underside is a Walter G fabric, and on the top a more luxurious fabric which is beautiful. Chrissie made it work with the existing bed head, which she didn't design but engaged with thoughtfully.

This stunning four-bedroom home effortlessly oozes fun and functionality with a transformation that honours colour, character and coming together. Enlisted to convert this modern Victorian into a home that marries heritage and hosting, architectural themes of period detailing and fluting feature throughout. Embarking on a colour journey of furniture, art selection, decor and soft furnishings, the finished product is a medley that accents the architectural backdrop of black and white with a line up of local furniture artisans, artists and international furniture designers that fills the home with a sense of flow and collaboration.

Fringe Dweller’s sculpted extension transforms an unassuming weatherboard cottage into a proud forever home. It walks multiple tightropes at once: balancing openness with privacy, strength with softness, and a rich history with our clients’ future needs. On Clifton Hill’s suburban edge, the house sits opposite the leafy Quarries Park Reserve. Our clients, Ishtar and Craig, have three children and purchased their cottage to create a long-term family home. Lying within a heritage overlay, the cottage’s traditional layout is largely preserved – only tweaked, in a wise parenting move, to form three equally sized bedrooms. The extension’s shared spaces feature rich materials, a warm palette and curved edges, creating a feeling of softness and easing transitions between zones. A staircase arcing through the living areas leads up to the lounge and main suite. Elevated above street level, these spaces can more freely relate to the park: the lounge’s attached balcony overlooks the park’s open field, while the main bedroom’s floor-to-ceiling window frames magnificent foliage. Downstairs, sliding doors connect the living areas to a semi-covered deck, while the garden beyond is embraced by a self-contained studio at the rear and high walls on either side. A brick wall interspersed with permeable screens lines the site’s public edge, balancing backyard privacy with neighbourhood connection. For passers-by, it’s a strong addition to the streetscape, granting glimpses of the lush garden within. Fringe Dweller embraces its presence on the fringe of the parklands, balancing its historical context with its future as a nurturing family home.

The master ensuite feels like your own private day spa, featuring custom built in vanities warm timber tones, brass details and stone tops. Stone look tiles ground the space while a penny round mosaic features in the shower area. Subtle curves in the vanities and mirrors create softness in what could be a hard space.

This two-storey new home in Beaumaris balances contemporary form with practical family living. Designed to respond to site orientation and coastal context, the layout maximises natural light, privacy, and connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Material selection and detailing were carefully considered to achieve a refined, durable home suited to its location.

Our main bathroom at our #NewSpacesxMonash project is simple in design, but packs a punch on functionality and space. Storage to service three kids as they grow was imperative, so the bathroom features a massive 1800mm custom vanity by @topshelf joinery including tall cabinet. A ‘wet-area’ design encompasses both the back-to-wall bath and shower space, with a hand-held shower positioned between for ease of cleaning, especially for the kids in the bath on hair washing night! This open shower design also means less shower screens to keep clean

I worked alongside Base Architecture on this contemporary new home in the Brisbane bayside suburb of Manly for a young family. I assisted with the selection of finishes, colours and materials such as kitchen design, flooring and tiles. I also furnished the home in a contemporary and relaxed style. The clients incorporated some of their mid century modern pieces. The result was a home with casual elegance that is unpretentious, comfortable and inviting.
