BONDI BEACH
A light and bright beachside family home was designed and built within 6 months. The former 3 bedroom, 1 story dwelling was transformed into a large 2 story, 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom home. Complete with a light filled rumpus room for the family’s 3 small children, and a large open plan kitchen, living and dining area that flows onto an entertaining deck and new in-ground swimming pool.
With such a large design and build project it demanded a clear design vision right from the start.
Warm natural materials have been used throughout the home to ensure each design element flows onto the next. Resulting in a light and airy home with each room connecting and responding in harmony with the next.
The beachside Hamptons style was combined with modern clean lines to create a timeless interior.
“After a couple of meetings with hilton we decided to engage him for the entire design and build and not use an architect and interior designer - it was the best decision we made on the whole project. We did this because we felt he understood exactly what we wanted and was able to translate our ideas into an actual design”
We designed and custom made the driftwood pendant light that hangs delicately above the staircase.
The main entrance is positioned on the side of the home. On entry you are greeted with a bold staircase made from steel and recycled timbers surrounded with a stone backdrop and a huge floor to roof window and joining skylight, it literally floods the home with stunning natural sunlight. A beautifully executed and modern architectural statement.
Every detail in this home has been custom made by our team. The timber staircase, bathroom joinery, wall shelving, barn doors all created from recycled timbers.
The entire top level is constructed with traditional lining boards which integrated seamlessly with the grand cathedral ceilings and exposed beams.
The exterior of the home is loaded with architectural detail. The carpentry detail in the lining boards, window architraves and the exposed rafters are true to traditional Hamptons style beach houses.
“Hilton puts a lot of his personal energy into the design, you can tell by the time he puts into it and the number of good ideas that he comes up with that he’s really passionate about designing something special”
