FY Residence is crafted with a steadfast commitment to enduring beauty, crafted to evolve gracefully alongside its inhabitants. Guided by the discerning tastes of a couple deeply invested in nurturing burgeoning artistic talent, our design journey embraced the essence of timelessness infused with distinct personality. Their vision was clear: to imbue their space with a timeless allure, rich in character and depth.

In response to our clients’ quest for enduring elegance and ample display opportunities for their ever-evolving art collection, we embraced an authentic palette of natural materials – timber, stone and aged metals. Our vision was to marry timeless traditional detailing with a contemporary edge. Diving deep into the intricacies of layering, we curated an interplay of light and shadow through furniture and finishes, balancing proportions to evoke a sense of harmony within each space. Our dedication lay in seamlessly weaving classical interior design elements into contemporary living, ensuring an enduring aesthetic.

We were captivated by the myriad landscapes surrounding the home’s location, from lush greenery to plentiful shorelines. Our concept sought to distil the essence of this diversity, blending tones and fluidity akin to nature's own artistry. Through the interplay of contrasting materials, including organic elements like stone, metal, and wood, we narrated the story of these landscapes. The sinuous curve of the stair handrail echoed the fluidity of water's edge, while ancient old stone landscapes were told through the monolithic stone forms. Vertical bronze accents mirrored the bronzed bark of neighbouring trees, connecting the built environment to its natural surroundings. In honouring the bay's maritime heritage, handmade techniques were woven into elements like the balustrade, preserving the legacy of a time when ships dotted these waters.

In a world saturated with fleeting trends and disposable goods, we sought to veer away from the allure of fast fashion aesthetics. Our approach prioritises the creation of thoughtful interiors that are not over styled with products but instead, allow the residents the freedom to curate their spaces gradually, imbuing them with personal significance and depth. We advocated for the cultivation of meaningful design awareness among our clients, urging them to invest in enduring materials and furnishings - a commitment that not only reduces waste but also diminishes landfill burdens. From its inception to completion, FY Residence was conceived with a vision of interiors that evolve in tandem with the family. Meticulously crafted spaces to accommodate both present and future art collections, selecting materials destined to acquire a graceful patina as they mature alongside our clients' lives.
