The owners wanted to create a relaxed, open-plan oasis where they could both entertain and escape – but with three school-aged sons practicality was also a priority. The house needed a welcoming entrance, as the original one was awkward, messy and featured a series of nonsensical ramps. Upon completion this home was featured in Belle. 

  • The entrance was reoriented and a vestibule with elegant storage cabinets was added to hide the clutter of shoes and bags.
  • To create areas where the family could both entertain and escape, the architects created a series of terraces and rooms. This resort-like configuration means teenagers can throw a pool party while Mum reads a book and Dad has a beer with a friend, all within their own spaces. 
  • Frameless glass pool fencing was added to make the most of the harbour aspect.
  • Originally a small series of rooms set back from the view, now the open-plan living, kitchen and dining area is one big bright space that brings the outdoors in.
  • An additional storey was added to accommodate the master bedroom, which features a frameless corner window for uninterrupted views.
