In this week’s episode, we explore a multi-storey family home designed to balance modernity with warmth. The owners spent two years on its architectural design and construction, resulting in a calm and cohesive living space ideal for family life and entertaining.
Set in a peaceful neighbourhood, the home features an open-plan layout, natural light, and seamless indoor-outdoor transitions. Large glass façades, bifold sliding doors, and open walkways contribute to the home’s airy, light-filled atmosphere. Timber elements and sculptural forms, such as the statement steps and the integrated TV wall-staircase, bring warmth and visual continuity to the interiors.

The original site presented challenges with uneven ground and a narrow entry. Collaborating with their architect, the owners reconfigured the entrance by widening and elevating the steps, enhancing both flow and spatial clarity.

A soft cream-grey palette defines the interior, paired with dark accents in the dry kitchen and richer-toned furnishings. The dining area is designed for conviviality, anchored by a round table, pendant lighting, and mirrored backdrop to create a sense of spaciousness.

The dry kitchen adopts a monochromatic, clean-lined aesthetic, featuring a central island that doubles as a prep space and serving area during gatherings. The minimal theme extends to the staircase—a black cascading structure with glass railings and timber treads, enhanced by a rebuilt roof skylight and open risers to maximise daylight into the second floor.

The master bedroom was inspired by a boutique hotel in San Sebastián, fusing modern Victorian references with a muted bluish-grey palette and timber vinyl flooring. Its open layout includes generous floor space and floor-to-ceiling sliding windows, leading to an external pivot screen that functions as both sunshade and façade feature.

A sense of openness continues throughout the home, including the attic, which is used as a playful space for the family.
