Modern day property style description by the architects

A startling mix of Middle Eastern colours against ideal white provides this house its sense of luxury and tranquil liveability. The MCK renovation of a loved ones residence in Bellevue Hill has transformed an Arts and Craft Movement property into a pristine white canvas upon which bold textures speak. A quick client brief drove MCK’s strategy the owners of the six-bedroom residence complained the residence was also huge. MCK saw an urgent need to re-kind and reunite the interior spaces, although producing more of the in depth garden region, pool, and upper decks.

A new orientation of important living spaces was a crucial 1st step to maximising sunlight and all-natural ventilation. Connecting the formerly closed-off rooms was key to unlocking the home’s spaces and bringing about very usable and friendly living locations. External and internal blinds, as nicely as sunshade awnings, had been used to handle exposure to the sunlight, whilst inside the residence an open mezzanine has transformed the back hall into a functional focal point.

The use of the huge void to connect the kitchen, formal dining and living areas gives harmony to when disparate rooms. Light and the fine handle of it further enhances the mezzanine, ensuring these spaces are inviting and useable at all occasions of the day. The interior is kept neutral with punches of colour employed to add personality and character. All over the property the evocative contrast of intense textural materials is a striking design function. Rough sandstone plays off against smooth concrete, timber screens contrast against lush plants, jewel coloured tiles arranged in an Islamic fan pattern break up blocks of austere Calacutta marble.

A sandstone wall that ‘snakes’ its way via the creating from inside to out, is a clever tactical and visual device, used to connect a selection of spaces. The light colour palette was selected to complement the client’s extensive art and object collection. White paint was utilized on the walls and light or medium dark colours chosen for the flooring. In this way, a selection of modern finishes accent fittings, and fixtures along with bolts of hot orange, turquoise and cerise jump are permitted to leap out. In the dining space a custom-constructed screen among mirrors the precise pattern on the original stamped tin ceiling and acts as a decorative division between dining and living rooms.
