Soaking under the stars
Whether sharing a wine with friends, playing with your kids, or simply twiddling your toes, relaxing in a hot spa is a simple life luxury – here are some creative ways you can introduce a backyard oasis to your property
Turning to the sun
This renovation opens up the north-facing rear of its period home with a double-height gabled form that's hardly seen from the street but that echoes the existing frontage and is in keeping with neighbouring residences
Escaping the everyday
Rustic warmth is something of an understatement for this immersive, ergonomically reworked holiday home interior featuring an extensive use of reclaimed wooden panelling and aged brass detailing
New pool? Choose a cover that's hidden and high performance
Experienced pool cover company Covers 4 Pools has a range of options – if you're planning a new pool, an automated Roll Out Roll Under Slatted Cover is a great option
Headboards with a difference
A feature panelled wall in this guest bedroom connects with panelled elements in other areas of the interior, for a flow on effect and cohesion throughout the home
Outdoors becomes indoors
The stacked stone cladding on this reinvented home has also been brought inside, climbing to the ceiling and framing inset mirrors – part of the drive to create a modern interior aesthetic
Fire in the sky
This rooftop fireplace keeps you warm as ocean breezes blow in – every evening it's the same magic interplay, the sculptural fire competing for attention with the sun sinking over the coastline
Radical supports rustic
For this penthouse interior, furniture curation reinforces a contemporary atmosphere – the kitchen table with living edge wooden top and perspex leg contributes to the quirky decor
