This renovation brings a second storey and a light filled stairway to get to it – courtesy of a series of skylights in the sloping roof above

Want a visually pleasing, magical pathway through your garden or across your lawn? In this garden, stepping stones have a relaxed, organic appeal

Part of a comprehensive renovation, this new kitchen includes near-invisible wood cabinetry disappearing into the matching rear timber wall

This coastal home is clad with board and batten slats, setting up an exterior & interior palette of wood throughout – kitchen, ceiling and floor included

Wearing its symmetrical open storage and matching benchtops much like a neat uniform, this galley scullery is at the ready

Custom artistic rose gold trim cabinetry detailing, brass tapware, and designer pendants combine to take this kitchen to the next level

Porcelain sheet with the look of a large travertine stone slab backs the generous wet area in this bathroom – visual impact, no quarry involved

This linear, angular pool seems a natural pairing with its companion contemporary architectural home – plantings mitigate the pool's crisp lines

Pale wood floors and treads, a transparent glass bannister and see-through riserless stairs all contribute to this home's refined, visually expansive interior

A greatly improved layout, modern materials  and a crisp, clean black, white, and grey colour palette all inform this master ensuite with views

Positioning, style, backlit, magnified – bathroom mirrors come in all shapes and forms. Which design is suited to you?

For this design, the owners wanted an organic feel that wasn’t too perfect – the result is a character kitchen that's wild, rambling and natural
