Located in a suburb of downtown Melbourne, Australia, this beachfront home is close to both CBD and the beach and was designed by local interior design studio Matyas Architects. The studio's design concept is to provide a spacious, casual and relaxing home for busy professional couples with young children. The house needs to meet the needs of the growing family while being directly integrated with the outdoor space. The most important of these is the preservation of the original Victorian main room.
The interior is infused with contemporary details, and getting maximum natural light and garden views is an important consideration for the layout of the living and bedroom areas in the new house. Functional and timeless design is important to promote livability and lasting comfort. The palette of materials is simple and consistent throughout the old and new parts. The detail is minimalist, careful consideration is low-key, send out a kind of calm and quiet costly feeling, built sweet, relaxed home environment.
