By Katie Uther Design
This pavilion style home in Palm Beach was designed to accommodate extended family and entertain guests. In collaboration with local architect Geoff Watson the kitchen with the main living and dining area was designed to open out to the garden and outdoor BBQ entertaining. All a stone's throw from the beach and yet privately secluded.
The design direction was to create a stylish yet relaxed feeling interior based on a palette of earthy tones and textures. A rooftop terrace allows for alternative outdoor dining, lounging and other entertaining facilities.

Sydney interior design studio Katie Uther Design provides a highly personalised bespoke approach ; a service more comprehensive than a decorator and more specialised than an architect.
With the understanding that no two assignments are the same, the response to each commission is an expression of the client’s individuality, personality, living style and preferences.
Informed by open dialogue and exchange Katie sees her role is to interpret her client's wishes, resolving the pragmatics of form and function while creating a seamless integration with the architecture.
Rather than follow the latest trend Katie focuses on designing to create the desired feeling the interior space evokes. Favouring natural materials, the play between textures through selections of materials and lighting Katie aims to combine classic style and proportion expressed with beauty and refinement.
Originally a Sydney-sider, Katie's experience living and working in Paris and London shaped the designer she is today. Working across cultures and countries Katie brings a blend of European style and international experience to the creation of a uniquely Australian sensibility.
