Martha's Cove, VIC banner

Clean geometric architecture and a restrained palette of materials are the design hallmarks of this private waterfront residence in Mt Martha.

The heart of the home is grounded in an epicurean kitchen, elegantly finished in cool grey limestone contrasting warm textured timber joinery that beautifully softens the predominant solid monolithic forms.
