The entry foyer sets the tone for the rest of the home. It creates an initial impression and establishes the overall ambiance and style. We included an in-built closet to ensure that the space can remain cutter free, providing a designated space for belongings. We wanted to create a visual impact, by using a feature wallpaper and feature pendant light. The client found the mirror, which really sets the aesthetic tone for the rest of the interior.

Designing a home that caters to the needs of the entire family is so important, as it fosters harmony, encourages bonding, and creates a welcoming sanctuary where each member, including pets, feels valued and content. Designing for families involves creating spaces that facilitate togetherness and encourage shared activities. Open floor plans that seamlessly connect living areas, dining spaces, and kitchens promote interaction among family members. A home should not only be aesthetically pleasing, but it should also be comfortable, family-friendly, and pet-friendly. This home truly reflects the people and pets who reside within it. Each space has carefully chosen artwork and furniture pieces to enhance the living experience. The indoor-outdoor flow maximizes the penetration of natural light into the home. The glazed areas not only brighten the interior but also create a sense of openness and spaciousness. The extended deck becomes an extension of the interior, providing additional areas for relaxation, entertaining guests, or engaging in various activities. Being able to easily access and enjoy outdoor spaces promotes a sense of tranquility, relaxation, and well-being. It also encourages outdoor activities, such as outdoor dining, or simply unwinding in nature, fostering a healthier and more balanced lifestyle.

An open plan layout allows for seamless social interaction and connectivity between different areas of the home. By integrating the dining area with the living room and kitchen, it creates a unified space where family members and guests can gather, converse, and share meals together. This promotes a sense of togetherness and facilitates easy communication. Open plan living often aims to make the most of available space by eliminating unnecessary walls and barriers. By incorporating the dining area into the communal space, it optimizes the use of square footage. The absence of partitions creates a visually open and spacious environment, making the entire area feel larger and more expansive.

The Guest Bedroom has an inviting atmosphere. We used a colour scheme that complements the rest of the home, but provides a point of difference. We paid attention to textural influences by using wallpaper and allowing the space to be neutral enough for accessorising with bold colours and artwork.

For the Master Bathroom we wanted to create a sophisticated and elegant atmosphere. To make the layout feel more spacious we used his and hers vanity cabinets both with circular mirrors over. The task lighting for grooming above the mirrors and ambient lighting for relaxation, enhances the functionality and mood of the room.
