Wrapped in deep charcoal tiles, this bathroom feels almost cave-like in the best way — quiet, enclosed, and made for slowing down at the end of the day. In Contour House, warm timber joinery and natural materials soften the darker palette.

Rather than replacing it, Pool House gave new life to the client’s original Cheminees Philippe fireplace through a carefully restored freestanding installation. Set against a quieter interior palette, the sculptural form becomes both a functional centrepiece and a subtle link between the home’s past and present.

Framed by dark interiors and vertical timber lining, the view becomes the focal point as soon as you step inside Anglesea Passive House. Drawing from the textures of coastal piers and surrounding bushland, the home was designed to heighten the feeling of arrival while staying deeply connected to the Surf Coast landscape.

Plenty of daylight fills this living area in Victoria Street Collective, making it feel open without doing much else. The large sliding doors connect straight to the balcony, while simple furniture and plants keep the space relaxed and easy.

Morning light does most of the work in this kitchen at Light House, Jan Juc, making the space feel open and easy to use. A timber-lined ceiling draws your eye across the room, while the long window frames the trees and brings the outside in.

This bathroom in Victoria Street Collective brings together warmth and clarity in a clean, cohesive way. The timber vanity and mirrored cabinet add natural texture, complemented by a crisp white basin and brass tapware. A glass screen keeps the layout open, allowing the space to feel light, simple, and well resolved.

Soft, simple, and easy to live in, this bedroom in Barry, Northcote is designed for calm. Warm timber elements, from the bed to the floating bedside, sit gently against a muted wall, while a wall-mounted light keeps the space clean, functional, and beautifully uncluttered.
