Haze exemplifies innovative and excellent interior design by prioritizing light, quality of space, and livability to meet the client's requirements. Warm and intimate yet generously proportioned spaces with a clean contemporary aesthetic create a versatile family home with a mix of formal and informal areas. The monochromatic and highly textured material palette, featuring timber, stone, and steel, alongside plush carpet and soft furnishings, enhances the tactile experience while directing movement through the space. Notably, the black curved staircase and continuous wall of black stained Victorian Ash add sculptural elements and guide occupants to different zones within the house, balancing functionality with aesthetic appeal.

Beyond aesthetics, Renwick's interiors are designed to accommodate the evolving needs of the client's family, offering ample storage and opportunities for personalization through artwork and decor. Sustainability is also a core consideration, with a focus on maximizing natural light, using sustainably sourced materials, and promoting cross ventilation. This holistic approach ensures that the interiors not only meet the immediate needs of the occupants but also anticipate and adapt to future changes, reflecting a commitment to enduring design excellence.

About the
Professional

A common response to our work is an appreciation of the light and space we create, but our designs are also conceived for a world where the sun shines, rains fall, winds blow, and temperatures vary – it’s this thinking that makes our buildings liveable, and lasting.

We are a Melbourne-based practice specialising in intelligent and sustainable design solutions. Our experienced team of architects and interior designers deliver individualised and often unique outcomes specific to each site and context.

Over the years we have developed an extensive portfolio of residential, multi-residential, commercial and interior projects, many of which have gained industry awards and recognition.

Centrally located in Cremorne in inner Melbourne, we deliver projects of varying scales and typologies, with a consistent focus on high-quality, design-focused outcomes that are bespoke and timeless by their nature.

The practice was founded in 2006 by Brett Nixon and George Fortey, who had previously learned their craft with some of Australia’s leading architectural firms, working on a wide range of residential, multi-residential, commercial and interior projects across the country.

We have now delivered well over $500 million worth of projects in many parts of Melbourne and throughout regional Victoria, including Boroondara, Stonnington, the City of Yarra, Bayside, Port Phillip, the Mornington and Bellarine Peninsulas, Geelong, the Surf Coast and the Alpine Shire.
