Home kitchen bathroom commercial design
Tactile by the sea
How best to evoke a coastal theme for a bathroom by the sea? Here, the use of natural stone and timber-look finishes gets the vibe just right
Tasteful inclusion
Natural materials, soaring cabinetry, and layered textures come together in a kitchen that accentuates its lodge-like setting – a temperature controlled wine room adds to the refinement
Well rounded and future friendly
Looking to downsize yet stay in the neighbourhood you love? These two high-end townhouses are designed for just such a buyer and are future-proofed into the bargain
Dressed in sunlight
This generous walk-in robe/dressing room really has it all – wall-to-wall clothing storage, a skylight overhead and even a special throne for the slippers
Black beauty
A Gaggenau oven and cooktop, with industrial strength ventilation overhead, recede visually but stand out in terms of functionality in this bold, atmosphere-plus kitchen
Beaming welcome
This kitchen is in step with its home's lodge-like vibe – under the hardwood beams, the island is clad in Shinnoki Walnut timber to advance the lodge theme and complement the rustic beams
Roof power
This home celebrates the classic barn vibe – but look closer, one of the rugged Heritage Tray Colorcote roofs, by Dimond, has an additional feature
Colourful connection
This bathroom celebrates the vibrancy of Mexico – a splashback comprising colourful hand made Mexican wall tiles connects with the equally colour-rich Mexican vanity basin
Crisp accent
Starke tapware, by Axor, adds a clean-lined, contemporary accent to this refined bathroom which also features soft tones and classically finished wall cabinetry
Reflection and repose
Offering a fresh take on the gabled home, this sculptural, sustainability-minded residence nestled amongst the trees connects dramatically with its expansive natural setting
Curvaceous welcome
Finely rendered curves fulfil more than one role in this master ensuite-meets-dressing space, while a stand-out marble backdrops tub and shower stall
Fusion cooking
The London-based owner wanted a kitchen reflecting cool of Scandinavian style, mixed with the warmth of her native country Australia – natural and white-painted oak cabinetry, and fine detailing were the result
