As if it's not enough that this bathroom's glass walls give it an outdoor feel, the shower also has an outside vibe going on

A Staron solid surface island with fluted surfaces and central pop-up holds court in this kitchen while splashback tiles echo the expansive sea outlooks

The calmness, the colours, the elegant lines – we're not sure how the pool designers connected with the home's Grecian feel, but connect they did

Working with a standard plot, this home's interior is defined through organised spaces surrounding a central courtyard that opens to the outdoors via glass walls

This pool-side retreat takes facilities next level – guest bedroom, office, yoga room, wet bar, bathroom and sheltered outdoor living all feature

The fine art of playing up the relevant and downplaying the functional-but-mundane – here, a laundry/ powder/everything room accentuates the positive

Unrecognisable from before, this two-townhouse renovation sits firmly on the site, boasting spaces filled with light encased in a sustainable building envelope

The gas fire in this living room provides an excuse for a dramatic architectural statement while the long hearth doubles as shelving and even seating

Indoor-outdoor flow was important for food as well as people in regard to this kitchen – catered to with large servery windows and an inside-to-out stone benchtop 

The ornate herringbone tile pattern in the shower brings a splash of colour and a dash of implied artisanship to this bathroom

The owners scored a dream home-in-one with this expansive, light filled Landmark residence on the doorstep of a harbourside golf course

Long, low furniture accentuates the proportions of this renovated space – a white and light timber palette provides a neutral backdrop for artworks
