With a treated top surface, this vanity began life as a kitchen butchers block table – part of a wider eclectic meets rustic bathroom design

Barestone panels were selected for this garden wall for their lightweight durable properties and design aesthetic – hidden planter boxes will soften the look over time

 The palette for this home includes wood flooring, blackbutt decks, cedar ceilings running out to timber soffits and Rosewood timber framed windows & doors 

Millboard Smoked Oak boards, from Forte Refined Timber, provide the natural deck underpinning this outdoor living and dining backyard retreat

In contrast to the wood box that contains the public spaces of this home, the private wing is clad in Corten steel. Both materials sensitive to the surrounding landscape

For this renovation, the interior circulation edge is lowered while the pool surrounds are lifted, setting up a garden edge where previously fall protection was required

Crowned with natural light from a skylight, this kitchen furthers its airy feel with reed glass-fronted cabinets, including on the island

Opulent display shelving adds to this kitchen's furniture-like, luxe feel – letting the timber wall surfaces shine through provides a second positive

What do you get when your bedrooms are all upstairs? Well, in this G.J. Gardner medium density-friendly design, you get a living space literally the size of the home's footprint

This façade on a contemporary home comes alive at night with the ability to backlight the polycarbonate façade with colour changing LED lighting

A soft oblong wall recess provides attractive shower storage – the shape of the niche replicates the form of the mirror above the basin

Led by an exotic dark marble, with prominent veining, this immersive master ensuite constitutes a quiet, restful parental escape
