Rich-look Laminex Elegant Oak cabinetry, concealing a wealth of storage, lines this laundry – helping turn an everyday chore into a more pleasing experience

There are cantilevered tables, then there are cantilevered tables – this apartment dining table must have some serious structural thinking underpinning its long-reach design

The brief here was to create a landscape that paid homage to the original heritage of the cottage, transitioning to a more modern aesthetic with various outdoor spaces 

This al fresco kitchen features a barbecue and bar fridge with timber doors on surround – matching the adjacent table for a clean, considered aesthetic

An appealing natural silvering to both the deck, and similar-look table and chairs is on the cards for this lakefront outdoor living space serving a renovated timber A-framed house

The intention for this kitchen was for it to be seen as another furniture element in the interior, with simple lines and finishes – as part of this, built-in open storage faces the living spaces

This sculptural firepit in shaped oxidised steel is the very essence of pared back and primal – part of a renovated home where the main outlooks are trained on the garden itself

This private master suite balances a dark, moody look with day-to-day practicality – a sense of indulgence and connection to the showhome's wider architecture are to the fore

Multi-generational living has never looked so seamless in this architectural home comprised of three entwined masses – the exterior creates interest through both its dynamic forms and various yet harmonious cladding choices

With monochromatic grey cabinetry at differing heights, simple forms and natural materials, this kitchen reflects on the home's original individualistic architecture

Walnut floors go further and climb the walls in the underground section of this home – the pared back material palette contrasts with the architect's more indulgent sculptural design approach

Taking its cues and inspiration from the Palm Springs style, this kitchen – and adjacent dining setting – emphasises simplicity, clean lines and a bright, airy feel
