Full of moody colours and luxurious finishes, this two-storey, seven-bedroom Georgian Revival-style mansion is the latest incarnation in an ongoing creative process. Ten years after Greg Natale Design conceived the design for this 1930s family home, we returned to refresh the interiors, addressing new areas and reworking older ones. A former reception room at the entrance has become a formal living room, with a symmetrical layout featuring burgundy curtains and velvet armchairs, between a huge chandelier and a black and charcoal moiré-patterned rug. The room sets the scene for a sophisticated blend of burgundy and grey throughout, with moulded white ceilings providing balance and detail.

Bathrooms are rich in tone and materiality, with one powder room in burgundy and brass, another in black and gold, and ensuites continuing bedroom palettes of black, pink and grey. Artworks add colour and energy to an interior layered with nuanced shades and elegant lines. Outdoor spaces contribute their own hues, from a living room in grey, green and burgundy to a poolside setting with a European beach club vibe befitting this grand residence.

Thank you for your interest in our services. Please include detail on your project so we can respond with the best possible information.
