This home seamlessly blends traditional charm with contemporary comfort, creating a space where timeless style gets a modern spin. The focus was on enhancing the bathroom, toilet, and kitchen, along with adding a new separate laundry room.
Throughout the home, a classical, crisp, and contrasting black and white color scheme prevails. Both off-the-shelf and bespoke furniture and fittings feature a traditional design.
In the bathroom, a black tile skirt complements the grey, black, and white patterned floor. Glossy white beveled edge subway tiles adorn all walls from floor to ceiling, with a black curved border tile adding a bold horizontal line. Despite the potential for a harsh contrast, the soft contours, beveled edges, and patterns achieve a balanced and harmonious look reminiscent of the early 1900s.
Adding a contemporary twist, modern elements like the heated ladder rail, underfloor heating, and frameless glass shower enhance functionality. The claw foot bath stands out beautifully against the patterned floor tiles. The traditional architecture is echoed in the tile and furniture selection. To maintain a balance within budget constraints, simple clean lines were embraced for the frameless glass shower and square-stopped ceiling junction.
The kitchen received a makeover with new shaker-style cabinets, including glazed doors on the overheads. The existing pantry alcove was revamped with new architraves and bi-folding doors, housing custom-made shelves. The engineered stone benchtop extends up the walls to the overhead cabinets and new window sill, providing a seamless and durable work surface and splashback.
A dedicated laundry room was created by erecting a wall, featuring bespoke cabinets with a hang rail, tall unit for cleaning supplies, and open space for a laundry hamper. These cabinets match the shaker style of the kitchen cabinetry, with a consistent marble engineered stone benchtop and beveled edge white gloss subway tile splashback.
In conclusion, this home exemplifies the perfect blend of traditional charm and contemporary comfort, offering a space where timeless style receives a fresh and modern spin.

For the team at Spin, design is a way of life – we live it, we breathe it – we walk into a room and instinctively break it down into components: carpet, lights, cabinets, windows etc. We look at walls, and through walls and shift things around in our heads to unlock the potential of a space.
