Double Bay

Welcome Home

For this new second floor addition house in Double Bay we devised a ‘Modern Mediterranean’ concept that was both stylish and liveable. The home’s alignment with a rockface meant that the interiors were dark, so we curated a palette of light hues with skylights and leafier outdoor views. Catering to the family’s diverse needs, we created a basement study, kids retreat, office-library and master suite.

The kitchen is refined and sophisticated, but still approachable, with stools that tuck under the island for casual meals or company while cooking. Purposeful joinery runs floor-to-ceiling and a breakfast bar nook adds extra amenity. To soften the chunky Arabescato Vagli island bench, we added a delicate, branched pendant with hand-blown glass bulbs.

The existing layout was flipped so that the communal area would face the pool and entertaining terrace. We planned a better connection to the lushly landscaped backyard by framing the dining zone in openable sheets of glass that stream west-facing sun through in the afternoons. A staccato of evocative shadows are cast across the blonde herringbone timber flooring and creamy dining chairs throughout the day.

A large pivot door that leads directly to the outside pool area, blesses the ground floor living and workspace area with an abundance of natural light.
