While the design embraces contemporary elements, it pays homage to the home’s architectural heritage. Subtle curves and soft contours throughout the interiors echo the historical charm of the original cottage, creating a seamless dialogue between past and present. The use of our Ona lip pulls throughout the space replicate the curves you can see throughout the home. Expansive views of Brisbane city are framed perfectly from the living spaces, forging a fluid connection between the indoors and the natural surroundings.
What makes this transformation even more remarkable is that the home was created for none other than the talented builder Aurelien behind the project and founder of Aurelien Berson Construction. Designing his residence alongside Ashley from AM Interior Studio allowed a tailored and rule breaking vision to life, blending craftsmanship with innovation in every detail.
Guided by Aurelien’s need for tranquillity and rejuvenation, Ashley integrated a dedicated wellness space featuring a sauna, ice bath, spa, and pool. Each component of the design is a nod to intentional living, encouraging relaxation and recovery. Perhaps the most striking feature is a skylight in the study, ingeniously doubling as the base of the pool, casting a mesmerising play of light that shifts throughout the day.
The interior palette is a refined balance of warmth and sophistication. Rich walnut tones are paired with calming greens, grounding the home in nature. Our Bellevue Lined Handles in bronze add the finishing touch of elegance, chosen for their sculptural quality and timeless appeal. Their clean lines complement the modern yet grounded aesthetic of the space.
This Teneriffe home is more than just a renovation, it's a deeply personal expression of heritage, innovation, and wellbeing. It stands as a testament to thoughtful design, where every detail tells a story and every space invites you to slow down and breathe.
