To meet the client‘s brief and maintain the character of the house it was decided to retain the existing timber framed windows and VJ timber walling above tiles.
The client loves green and yellow, so a patterned floor tile including these colours was selected, with two complimentry subway tiles used for the walls up to the picture rail. The feature green tile used in the back of the shower. A playful bold vinyl wallpaper was installed in the bathroom and above the dado rail in the toilet. The corner back to wall bath, brushed gold tapware and accessories, wall hung custom vanity with Davinci Blanco stone bench top, teardrop clearstone basin, circular mirrored shaving cabinet and antique brass wall sconces finished off the look.
The picture rail in the high section was painted in white to match the wall tiles and the above VJ‘s were painted in Dulux Triamble to match the custom vanity 2 pak finish. This colour framed the small room and with the high ceilings softened the space and made it more intimate. The timber window architraves were retained, whereas the architraves around the entry door were painted white to match the wall tiles.
The adjacent toilet was changed to an in wall cistern and pan with tiles, wallpaper, accessories and wall sconces to match the bathroom
Overall, the design allowed open easy access, modernised the space and delivered the wow factor that the client was seeking.

This renovation included kitchen, laundry, powder room, with extensive building work.

Breaker Street Kitchen Project
Coastal Apartment Renovation – Main Beach
Our clients engaged us to redesign their apartment kitchen to bring in more light, functionality, and a timeless coastal elegance. The brief was to create a refined space that felt calm and connected to the surrounding ocean views while enhancing everyday usability and storage.
Cabinetry
The cabinetry features a classic Shaker-style profile finished in 2pac satin white, delivering a clean and enduring aesthetic. To complement the bright palette, brushed brass hardware was selected for a subtle touch of sophistication. Open timber shelving in Polytec Boston Oak Woodmatt introduces warmth and texture, tying beautifully with the timber flooring and coastal-inspired décor. All cabinetry was custom-built to maximise every inch of available space, including full-height storage and a dedicated appliance nook.
Benchtops & Splashback
The benchtops are Caesarstone Aterra Blanca, chosen for their soft veining and high durability. The same material was extended up the wall as a full-height splashback, creating a seamless, luxurious finish that reflects natural light throughout the room. The large L-shaped breakfast bar provides generous preparation space and breakfast seating, enhancing the kitchen’s social and practical design.
Appliances & Fixtures
The layout was planned around a combination of integrated and freestanding appliances to suit the client’s cooking and entertaining style. Inclusions feature:
• Double wall ovens and induction cooktop
• French-door refrigerator
• Dishdrawer dishwasher
• Undermount butler’s sink with brushed brass mixer
• Built-in wine fridge and coffee station
Lighting & Styling
Under-cabinet LED lighting adds functional task illumination, while minimal white ceiling lights maintain a crisp, uncluttered look. The overall styling embraces soft coastal textures.
Design & Functionality
Every element of this kitchen was designed to feel spacious, light, and effortlessly functional. Clever storage solutions and well-proportioned benches ensure ease of use without compromising aesthetics. The result is a calm, coastal-inspired kitchen that seamlessly blends modern convenience with timeless style — perfect for apartment living and entertaining alike.

House 1915 is a historically significant home, and Stage 1 of this design project is centred around preserving and transforming the front portion of the property.
Paying careful attention to its heritage listing, the transformation respects the house's architectural legacy while blending modern design elements throughout to create a beautiful and functional home for its Owners.
Our scope of work focused on the Entry, Formal Dining, Formal Living, and Master Bedroom. By preserving the original layout of each room, whilst honouring their architectural integrity, we introduced a modern and functional perspective through our curated furniture selection.
The end result marries classic design and contemporary style to create a home that is both timeless and practical.
