Strategic spacial reconfiguration for this dual-toned kitchen project makes room for a generous scullery while gleaming mirror splashbacks refract the surrounding waterfront landscape

This single-level, sustainability minded home overlooking a golf course provides a semi-rural retreat for its owners – features include a mid-century aesthetic and private pool

Tucked away in a private wing, this refined master suite comprises a panelled bedroom, a bespoke walk-in wardrobe and a light-filled bathroom with dark woodgrain cabinetry and sculptural vessel basins
