By Rezen Studio
Located in a heritage area, this federation style cottage was reinterpreted and personalised for its new owners – a professional couple with a passion for history. The owners sought a higher level of amenity from the home’s existing spaces, within a calm and cohesive design language.
Existing heritage features were combined seamlessly with contemporary elements which, while different, share the same sensibilities. Cabinetry and finishes were designed with selective texture and embellishment within an overarching palette that is simple and contemporary.
Natural stone and brass were used throughout to create a softness and depth that will develop in time to become another overlay within the home’s history.

An award-winning boutique practice, Rezen is a place where ideas are nurtured, and high-quality built environments are designed. Our focus is on creating enriching environments that positively contribute to wellbeing. We believe that order and systems underpin beauty, and in creating calm and considered environments that generate, rather than reduce.
With decades of experience across commercial and residential interiors and architecture, our team brings creative energy, personalised service, experience and vision to all of our projects.
We are passionate about designing for people and believe the journey is as important as the outcome. We love getting to know our clients, spending time in conversation and holding space for design to intuitively unfold. We aim for authentic expressions of the places that exist and the people who design, build and inhabit them. Our philosophy, both in a design and operational sense, is that of integrity.
