"A Japanese-Inspired Contemporary Home" This recently completed project beautifully blends Japanese design elements with modern functionality. Nestled on the edge of Sydneys CBD in Redfern, the home has been transformed into the perfect haven for the clients to unwind. The renovation involved a significant transformation, including the demolition of the back section to make way for a new kitchen, laundry, and dining area, with a serene master suite above. Initially intended as an investment property, the design focused on affordable and timeless fixtures and finishes that would endure over time. A standout feature of this renovation is the Japanese-inspired courtyard garden, completed with a sauna and a convenient car space at the rear. This tranquil outdoor space serves as a peaceful oasis in the bustling city. To maximise the space, the design embraced a "less is more" philosophy, opting for a calm palette of soft blues and neutrals, low and curved furniture, increased ceiling heights, and clever storage solutions. The cozy dining nook features a built-in banquette seat with additional storage, outdoor fabric for extra durability, and a removable cushion cover for easy cleaning. Natural light floods the interiors, enhanced by retractable fly screens and motorised blackout blinds for privacy when needed. This project serves as a source of inspiration, showcasing how thoughtful design can create a harmonious and timeless living space.

“We are thrilled with the final result and couldn't have achieved it without her meticulous attention to detail and patience. Georgia was invaluable in sourcing and selecting all of the finishes for our new home, in addition to furnishing the house in a way that perfectly complemented the architecture- in the most sophisticated way! We were so grateful for her expertise, industry contacts and guidance throughout the entire process. Thanks to Georgia, our small and narrow terrace came to life with a perfectly planned layout, a beautiful colour palette and well-chosen furniture and styling. We are thrilled with the final result and couldn't have achieved it without her meticulous attention to detail and patience. Georgia's talent, maturity and passion for design were evident in every decision she made. She understood our brief perfectly and always ordered samples to ensure they were the best fit for our home before making any decision - her efforts were always above and beyond. Her dedication and knowledge of design details were impressive and she was also very conscious of budgets and her time - we found her to be very efficient and effective for the tasks at hand. Thanks to Georgia, our home has been transformed into a stunning space that we will enjoy for a lifetime. We are so grateful for her amazing work and couldn't be happier with the end result.”
