Home kitchen bathroom commercial design
Show kitchen? No, that's the scullery
Sculleries don't come much more blinged up and storage rich than this – brass cabinetry keylines and handles are matched with a splashback mosaic called Oro (that's gold in Italian)
Go on, run outside
This home exhibits great indoor-outdoor flow – and that includes the feature timber ceiling that continues seamlessly outdoors as generous soffits
Soft touch
For this bathroom, mirror backlighting provides quality task lighting and includes dimmers, for a soft relaxing feel and double use as a night light
Intoxicating presence
Just grabbing a bottle from this wine cellar would likely intoxicate the senses – note: when the lines all look parallel you know you've had enough
I'd love a pool but don't have the right space
Pool design has come a long way in recent years – and build versatility is a key part of that. Is your site, small, tricky, unusable? Cascade Pools has a solution
Vision and reality
The ornate fireplaces in this renovated home looks great while its fuss, mess and labour is circumvented thanks to underfloor hydronic heating
Of course madam, which al fresco party was that?
This award-winning home has not one but two outdoor entertaining spaces. The lower alfresco dining area is underlit to dramatic effect.
Respecting the sun and wind
Passive heating and cooling are features of this home which is designed to sit well with its neighbours – through sightlines pick up on mature trees
Maximising space and storage
An introduced dividing wall brings opportunity to give this marble-look bathroom open shelf storage, while a large wall mirror doubles the sense of space
Queenslander character
A beautiful Queenslander home was ill-served by a modern but style-free kitchen – enter a new design in keeping with the home's classic appeal
No gender bias here
This kids' rumpus room complete with fun lighting is adjacent to the family room – so everyone's close, without toy chaos impacting the adult spaces
Ingrained style
Floating the vanity in this contemporary master bathroom adds to the room's sense of spaciousness – wood graining meets marble-look veining
