Mid-Century Modern Custom Home

Sited upon the crest of a hill, this mid-century modern inspired home it consists of two distinct wings which are subtly angled around a courtyard, forming the central focus of the dwelling, and creating a dramatic entry. The clients required a timeless design with connection to the surrounding landscape, which has been skilfully achieved via an earthy palette of natural materials, including native Australian timber, stone, copper and polished concrete.

Internally, a hand-laid stone-clad fireplace with sunken lounge creates a breathtaking focal point. Hardwood ceilings flow throughout the central open-plan area, counterbalanced by Geostone floors. The dining area features a wall bar finished in Toledo marble stone with luminescent veins of green and gold. The earthy colours, along with the use of hand-cut moss green tiling on the kitchen splashback and curved island bench, balance the abundance of timber, resulting in a beautifully harmonious interior.

Blackbutt timber boards line the bathrooms, complemented by terrazzo floor tiles, which are dappled with timber-toned aggregate. Bronzed fixtures and bespoke timber cabinetry reinforce the natural, earthy feel. The clean architectural simplicity continues to the generously proportioned master bedroom and walk-in robe. Here, seagrass wallpaper contributes tonal layers, whilst the vintage style light fittings imbue a sense of warmth and home.
