Mission Statement
By Kate Nixon
The client brief was to sensitively inject colour and personality into the existing architecture – to create a feeling as though anything added had always been. Drawing inspiration from the original stair tiles, arches and ironwork the interiors were designed to preserve and honour the unique history of the home in a mature and elegant tone.
A triumphant tribute to Spanish revival architecture, this exceptionally maintained home in Sydney’s northern suburbs has been sensitively decorated to honour its architectural origins and owners love of classics and colour.
Collaborations with master craftsmen were paramount to achieving the level of quality and finish required.
The project reflects and celebrates the current mood of formality and grandeur, authenticity and age in the face of social media fame and laidback luxury fatigue, setting a new standard for interior decoration and legacy architecture.
