By Stark Design
The Gatehouse is an historic Federation home with three street frontages and a beautiful large veranda. The clients wanted a garden that was designed with the interior in mind and vice versa so that the delineation was blurred and which spoke to the interior feel and era of their home. A ‘picking garden’ with lots of seasonal variety was also requested.
Our design response was driven by the belief in a unified design aesthetic both inside and out, having designed the interiors. This was achieved by reflecting the colours and textures from inside in the outside plant material colour and textural choices. In designing the interiors, we ensured that the garden vistas became a feature of every room; through the windows and French doors.
As a design practice, Stark Design treats indoor and outdoor spaces with equal affection. Specialising in designing both residential interiors and gardens, spaces are treated as a unified whole.
Principal designer, Jane Stark, had the unique vision to provide a unified and seamless design aesthetic to both the inside and outside of your home.
Jane studied with the New York School of Interior Design and completed studies in landscape design and horticulture in Sydney to make this vision a reality. This unique approach is a perfect fit for Australia’s temperate climate and relaxed lifestyle.
To deliver such a single vision and service, our practice comprises a team of interior and landscape designers and stylists. Whether we are working with you indoors or outdoors, one design vision is applied by one professional design team.
