SOUTH YARRA | The main bedroom at our South Yarra project was designed as a true exhale at the end of the day.

Wrapped in milky polished plaster walls, custom carpet underfoot and a generous leather bedhead stretching wall-to-wall, the space leans into warmth, softness and comfort without feeling overly precious. We wanted it to feel cocooning and calm - somewhere to retreat from busy work lives and switch off completely.

MADE FOR SLOW DAYS | A cosy country home in Beechworth, designed as a place to slow down and spend time together. We reworked the interiors from the ground up; reconfiguring the layout, designing custom joinery and windows, and selecting finishes and furnishings throughout. The result is a warm, calm home shaped around ease, comfort and everyday escape from city life.

QUIET ACHIEVER | The study at Gable House is calm, functional and quietly layered - designed to support daily use while still feeling considered.

A soft, muted palette sets the tone, with moments of gloss and colour bringing depth and contrast. Art and objects are kept deliberate but relaxed, adding warmth and personality.

GREEN SCENE | At Brook House, home and garden feel connected, and the everyday moves at a relaxed pace.

A foundation of warm neutrals sets the tone, while moments of contrast - like the deep green tiled ledge - anchor the space and draw the eye outward to the garden beyond.

Designed in collaboration with Therefore Studio, the home reimagines a Californian bungalow for modern family living, prioritising connection, light and a seamless relationship to landscape.

TERRACE HOUSE - Recent site photos from our Terrace House project.

Our client fully leaned into the intricacy (music to our ears), embracing the idea of a home that invites curiosity at every turn. It’s been such a joy exploring the nuance of every junction, finish and material choice as this one comes to life.

ROOM TO GATHER | At Elonera House, the open plan kitchen and dining is where everything comes together - homework at one end of the table, dinner prep at the other, friends drifting in and out.

We kept the palette light and warm, leaning into timber across the floor and ceiling to create a sense of continuity. The original Edwardian shell remains, but the way it flows now feels completely rethought; open, practical and easy to live in.

Nothing overly precious. Durable finishes, generous proportions and furniture that invites you to sit properly (and stay awhile). The red threshold off the hall brings a hit of personality, while the overall mood stays calm and grounded - a backdrop for real life.

A family home, designed to be used.

SERVING SOON | Plenty on the boil as we move through 2026. The studio is immersed in projects across a range of scales and stages, and we’re excited to begin sharing a series of completed works - including this kitchen, captured at our Boulevard House project. More to follow in the months ahead.

WATTLE LOT OF GEOMETRY - On site at Wattle House, marvelling at the precision it takes to pull off this geometric tiling detail. Clean lines, curved corners, and a whole lot of skill.

Some homes invite quiet restraint. Others ask for colour, intricate detailing and a little bit of fun.

This 1980s Cocks & Carmichael gem gave us an opportunity to work with all three - a reminder that design can be both playful and poised.
