Coastal Luxe Beach Pad

  • Project Name : Interior Design, Concierge, Renovation
  • Status : Complete
  • Location: Avalon
  • Creative Director : Rod
  • Project Manager : Rod & Ell

Concept Brief

With our Clients living in Los Angeles and their love to escape back to Sydney whenever possible, this was an amazing project to work on. The initial brief was to conceptually design their untouched 3-bedroom weatherboard shack into a relaxed yet sophisticated beach pad. The concept moved swiftly into the design phase ‘raw coastal luxe’ with pared back luxury finishes.

Project Highlights

The project was rolled out in 3 stages.

Stage1. The Build.
Within a four-month period the property was transformed – from shabby beach shack to ultimate Coastal Luxe pad. To accommodate the family, we added a 4th bedroom with ensuite and created a second living area. In that living room, the joinery is a divine, timber multilayered feature wall, that has become an absolute talking point of the home.
Walls were removed and the kitchen received a complete overhaul, creating an open plan space that flows seamlessly to the dining area, then through to the front terrace, overlooking the water.

Stage 2. The Furniture.
We now had a stunning blank canvas to work with, and were instructed to commission all bespoke furniture to best compliment the new interior. All raw weathered feels – using linens, canvas & washed prints to add detail. Light fixtures, window finishes & floor rugs completed the interior design.

Stage 3. Outdoors
A full year went by before Stage 3 was approved. It gave the clients time to stay in the home and get a feel for what spaces they used most and what they would utilise them for. The back courtyard became their dramatic entry from the street-front. It was a statement of what was to come – large couches, ottomans and textured cushions, a lush planting scheme, raw timber decking and unfinished, rusty steel features.
The front terrace, that overlooks the water became their ultimate entertaining area – with low lying couches next to an external fireplace, a raised bar table and stools and electric blinds to allow for all year entertaining.

Final Result

This became our clients ultimate home away from home. They felt as soon as they walked through the front gate, that they were able to relax, unwind and enjoy.
