With a growing young family Therese and her husband Chris found a home in South Yarra that they could settle into long term. The house they found had excellent period features but was in dire need of an update.

Therese enthusiastically approached the re-design of this house by embracing bold tones and beautiful natural stones. Each room of this Victorian home was brought to life with thoughtful details and carefully selected finishes. The spatial layout was also re-worked to create formal and informal living spaces for this family of five. All of the period features of the house were respectfully maintained and all of the new joinery, windows and doors were sympathetically designed to seamlessly link each of the rooms within this home.
