Laneway House was a workers’ cottage situated on a prominent street in Naremburn. It was run-down and needed remedial works to be habitable, as well as additional space to accommodate the clients’ plans to start a family.

The re-design opened up the back of the house for modern family living, while retaining the traditional aesthetic at the front of the house. A first-floor parents’ retreat was added, along with another bedroom to maximise the property’s potential.

The client’s sense of refined elegance guided the interiors, creating soft, light spaces with a contemporary edge. The palette of white, grey-blues, marbles and warm timbers is accented by polished chrome fittings. The traditional detailing at the front of the house is balanced by clean, contemporary lines towards the back, which is complemented by a modern exterior colour scheme. Floor to ceiling tiling in the bathrooms creates a sense of luxury, polished concrete floors provide durability and warmth underfoot, and the intelligent joinery conceals a breakfast bar and pantry within the kitchen.

“Cadence & Co provided invaluable guidance from concept to completion of our heritage renovation. The team of architects, designers, builders, trades and staff worked with us to realise our vision of modernising our home whilst remaining sympathetic to its history. Numerous plan iterations were proposed and refined, necessitating significant structural works and resulting in a transformative layout conducive to contemporary family living. Design elements were commissioned and thoughtfully selected, inspired by the building’s unique blend of architectural styles to achieve a cohesive outcome. Specialist trades with the requisite skills were diligently sourced and overseen by Cadence, which enabled period features to be both meticulously restored and significantly enhanced by bespoke joinery, fixtures and fittings. Cadence matched our attention to detail and worked methodically with us through various unanticipated challenges during the build until resolution. The quality of workmanship, materials and finishes are truly exceptional - we are appreciative of our collaboration with Cadence in creating our beautiful home.”
