Respecting the street’s heritage, the charming gabled façade was retained. But beneath, behind and above, the four-bedroom residence is confidently contemporary. Chiselled out of sandstone, the subterranean strata has a garage, cellar, rumpus and laundry. While the mid-level hosts the bay-windowed master suite and expansive living areas oriented north toward a Jamie Durie-designed rear courtyard.

Situated along the coastal foreshore of Inverloch surf beach, this 7.4 star energy efficient home represents a lifestyle change for our clients. ‘’The Nest’’, derived from its nestled-among-the-trees feel, is a peaceful dwelling integrated into the beautiful surrounding landscape. Inspired by the quintessential Australian landscape, we used rustic tones of natural wood, grey brickwork and deep eucalyptus in the external palette to create a symbiotic relationship between the built form and nature. The Nest is a home designed to be multi purpose and to facilitate the expansion and contraction of a family household. It integrates users with the external environment both visually and physically, to create a space fully embracive of nature.

This Kitchen was relocated from the middle of the home to the north end. Four steel trusses were installed as load-bearing walls and beams had to be removed to accommodate for the floorplan changes. There is now an open Kitchen/Butlers/Dining/Living upstairs that is drenched in natural light with the most undisturbed view this location has to offer. A warm and inviting space with oversized windows, gorgeous joinery, a curved micro cement island benchtop with timber cladding, gold tapwear and layered lighting throughout to really enhance this beautiful space.

Irreplaceable features of this State Heritage listed home were restored and make a grand statement within the entrance hall.

There’s nothing more satisfying and heart-warming to work with clients on multiple projects. I consider myself so fortunate to have met and worked with my Cremorne clients. The first time, I completed a full renovation of their then Mosman federation home back in 2007. This wonderful couple trusted me implicitly. As a designer, it’s one of the best feelings when clients are so willing to take on and run with your ideas. Getting to know your clients and forge lifetime friendships is an absolute privilege. So, in 2019 Ken and Pip, now empty-nesters, contacted me to help them with their brand-new abode. A considerable departure from their very traditional style that they’d left in Mosman. They wanted a new look. A complete departure, to a simple, sleek, and comfortable look, yet with an on-trend, but timeless feel. I’m so lucky to have worked with these amazing people.

Old meets new in our colourful design for this original worker’s cottage. Our clients were extending the cottage and engaged us before the build to perfect their interior design. We focused on every interior detail, from colours to finishes, fixtures, lighting and joinery design.

Coburg Frieze is a purified design that questions what’s really needed. The interwar property was transformed into a long-term family home that celebrates lifestyle and connection to the owners’ much-loved garden. Prioritising quality over quantity, the crafted extension adds just 25sqm of meticulously considered space to our clients’ home, honouring Dieter Rams’ enduring philosophy of “less, but better”. We reprogrammed the original floorplan to marry each room with its best functional match – allowing an enhanced flow of the home, while liberating budget for the extension’s shared spaces. Though modestly proportioned, the new communal areas are smoothly functional, rich in materiality, and tailored to our clients’ passions. Shielding the house’s rear from harsh western sun, a covered deck creates a protected threshold space to encourage outdoor play and interaction with the garden. This charming home is big on the little things; creating considered spaces that have a positive effect on daily life.
