Brunswick East House finds a synergy between disciplines and eras, coaxing the heritage character of a Victorian workers cottage into contemporary relevance through an alliance between interior and landscape design.
A dovetailing of new and old has informed the timeless refurbishment of two front bed-rooms. Exposed masonry, refinished wide-plank timber floors and classical joinery imbue an elegant modernity while a moss green palette is the first marker of an intentional fusion between interior and landscape design principles.
An understory of light and shade in the ground-floor bedrooms is juxtaposed by the sun-drenched airiness of the living and kitchen zone which directly activates
the garden beyond. A minimal design approach brings sophisticated resolve with a fully integrated kitchen at one end, a wall of operable glazing at the other and the clean, engineered precision of a stairway along the length of the space. Highlighting again the common ground between interior and landscape are a curation of robust materials often used externally - green quartzite, timber and a bluestone boulder which serves to anchor the stairway.
A new first floor extension containing bedroom, ensuite and study nook is distinguished by cathedral ceilings and seamless symmetry, borrowing a sense of space through light, air, highly resolved joinery and floor to ceiling windows.
Brunswick House gently converses between inside and out via a design language that intuitively dissolves where one ends and the other begins while nurturing an atmosphere of cosy home.

About the
Professional

Creating transformative, mood-affirming interiors – homes, hospitality and all spaces in between – is a design journey of discovery, creativity and partnership.


The Studio Amble ethos is grounded in the connection between designer and client. Intentionally running very few projects at once, we can work closely together at a smooth, comfortable pace to create captivating design.
Keeping the process – we call it the amble – calm and relaxed, yet purposeful and focused, we seek to find the right avenues for personality, imagination and craftsmanship to come to life.

Studio Amble takes a deeply considered approach
to producing beautiful, refined spaces. To highlight architecture’s emotive and atmospheric qualities, we communicate only what needs to be said – through quietly animated ambience, tactile materials and artefacts of value. In every project, we pursue uniquely designed elements, striving to craft unexpected moments that delight.
