Within the bones of an original 1930s home in Melbourne, Christopher Elliott Design has created a restrained and elegant interior world that infuses art deco elements with a contemporary sensibility.

The design coalesces around three defining gestures: the dramatic double helix staircase, the oak slatted detailing, and the steel-framed glazing that creates a new connection between the interior and the garden. From these three elements, Christopher Elliott Design developed a design language that informed the overarching concept. Director Christopher Elliott describes how the original architecture “wasn’t the purest example of the iconic period,” nevertheless, they sought to retain aspects that spoke to the Hawthorn House’s history. “We took cues from the original architecture by retaining a modernised ‘deco’ style and infusing it with a new contemporary design,” Christopher says.

In addition to working with Artedomus to source the Elba marble, Christopher Elliott Design also selected tiles and the bath from Artedomus. Having worked with Artedomus for many years across a variety of projects, “Artedomus is one of our ‘go-to’ suppliers,” Christopher explains. “We appreciate their diverse, progressive and timeless product range, which caters to different budgets and styles. And they’re always good for a laugh! We definitely need more of that in our lives. There is a reliable quality to all Artedomus products, which gives us the confidence to specify them. They just have some of the best products around.”
