Salvaging an exposed brick residence laden with heavy timber in Byron Bay, seventies inspiration flourished to convey a laid back utopia for a family of four amongst a tropical setting that backs onto the surf.
Devoid of generic white walls and ample glass prioritising external outlooks. Its gaze is firmly fixed inwards to create sensory journeys heightened by the eccentric beats of nostalgia. Within the expansive living area, we drew the gaze down from the pitched ceiling, concentrating timber accents upon the ground level. A circular window now offers glimpses of the semi-enclosed balcony’s foliage lining the master suite.
Responding to our clients’love of deep browns plus vintage pieces, we plumped up the furnishings with an assertive kind of whimsy, adding retro chrome injections.
Gutting the kitchen, we doubled its size, adding a ‘front- of-house’ L-shaped counter configuration to our partially concealed galley.
Striped veneer joinery lengthens the arrangement, bracketing a circular island also lined with pearlescent marble, while simultaneously extending the entrance passage. Chrome balustrades (inspired by ‘old school’ skate parks) tether the kitchen cupboards to a solid timber column, creating a casual leaning post for drinks around the island (also framing the new seventies-inspired sunken lounge.
The metallic datum extends to articulate custom chrome cupboard pulls entwined in soft brown leather with pops of pink stitching, while general brass door levers are encased in paler leather iterations.
Upstairs, a latticed timber screen filters light into to our enclosed corridor, adding visual interest from below. Spaces swell and expand through pattern integration. Removing pale ceramic floor tiles, square grids of terracotta pavers bound by thick grouting ground settings in the living zones.
Connecting levels, their outlines sync in smaller scale via the main bathroom’s checkered latte, flowing onto the balcony lining the parent’s retreat. Transitioning to spongey cork underfoot in their bedroom. Replacing sliding doors, we added an outdoor high seat ledge beyond the study/bar for morning coffees and evening drinks service for friends.
The residence packs a voluptuous mix of vintage spanning the aesthetic breadth of fifties Italian to the seventies. Through storytelling expression, we weave together the entire space, crafting a true utopian home by the bay.
