Contemporary living room

Design: Coote & Co Build: Mt Gisborne Homes Kitchen: Connors Kitchens by Design Photography: Lisa Cohen As a space for both family and guests to use when entertaining, the powder room in this Mount Macedon home needed to be both practical and fun. Considering the room’s lack of natural light, designer Charlotte Coote decided to keep the tones dark and moody, pairing high-gloss dark blue painted timber and textural lineal wallpaper with warm nickel tapware from Perrin & Rowe.

This Bella Vista pergola area adds a new dimension to the home. Sitting conveniently next to the in-ground pool, it is furnished with comfortable outdoor lounge seating, 10-seat dining table, and a woodfire pizza oven. Opening Roof Specialists gave special attention to all the finishing touches. The natural pergola colour scheme is matched to its surroundings, making it a calming and harmonious space to be in. Complete with LED lights, ceiling fan, and motorised opening louvres, entertaining guests by the poolside has never been more luxurious!
