Merging two apartments into one for this waterside family residence, Waves (2021) serves as an artfully executed wellness sanctuary designed for modern living.
With its postcard-worthy views and private rooftop access, Waves’ natural surrounds pervade this Brother Nature design and build commission. Through careful planning, inspired risk-taking and precision execution, an adjoining door enables the dual residences to cohesively open into one. The home’s water filtration system and luxury kitchen appliances equip the space with top-of-the-range amenities, while natural fibres such as silks, linens and wools offset luxury Italian velvet upholstery and quality leather. A duo of Brazilian White Fantasy and Italian Bianco Carrara marble imbues the space with welcome organic elements. The client’s connection to spiritual practice is revealed through both Japanese and Turkish-inspired bathtubs and a steam room, and reinforced through Melbourne-based Christopher Boots’ crystal fixtures and chandeliers. Waves’ sun-drenched location also requires refined manipulation of light – achieved through highly customisable design and blockout blinds. The finished product is a soulful and functional wellness respite from the hustle and grind of both daily life and the activity of the coastal promenade beyond.

About the
Professional
Brother Nature provides a holistic design, drafting, interiors and build service in Sydney and beyond. We are mass timber enthusiasts!
Established in 2014 by siblings Andy and Annalise Knight, Brother Nature’s founding mission was simple: craft high-quality, resident-driven spaces that are beautiful, compassionate to the planet, and work better for its people.
The pair’s country upbringing instilled in them early a desire to reduce their ecological footprint and, literally, build a world they could be proud of. The result is Brother Nature’s symbiotic Design and Build functionalities, providing a streamlined end-to-end architecture, interior design and construction service that fulfils the long-term practical, emotional and ethical needs of our clients.
People drive our business forward – Brother Nature’s team and customers alike – so we’ve made it a priority to surround ourselves with likeminded, curious, future-focused individuals who embody our ambition to do better. Each project becomes a shared success; all the more rewarding because we’re in it together.
And we’re working towards sustainable, though we’re the first to admit we’re not there yet.
Brother Nature is in a state of constant recalibration, committed to revising our solutions to the needs of our people and environment, and searching relentlessly for better ways of working. All in service of one goal: delivering meticulously constructed, aesthetically striking spaces that honour and live in rhythm with our clients and the landscape.
