Point Piper 1

Our client sought a home imbued with a spirit of “joyousness” where elegant restraint is contrasted with a splash of theatricality.

Archer Design created a fully integrated architectural and interior design environment within which a carefully curated art collection and beautiful, comfortable furnishings from notable international design houses are in constant conversation with the ever changing light of Sydney Harbour.

To achieve the desired outcome we completely stripped out the existing four level dwelling leaving nothing but a bare concrete shell. Low ceilinged rooms were then able to be elevated to almost four metres in height creating exciting volumes that soar, permitting light to fill the elegantly appointed spaces.

This substantial home in many ways represents an ideal Sydney lifestyle where the indoor and outdoor divide dissolves. Archer Design worked closely with leading landscape architects Wyer & Co. to ensure that the jungle-like gardens (barged in to create instant lush backdrops to the main living spaces) were not separate to the interiors but another contributing textural element visually integrated into the carefully balanced architectural environment.
