About
Contemporary Beauty was created for Daniel and his young family, built on his parent’s stunning property.
It was such an inspiring sloping site to work with overlooking a leafy park and views of the water.
We love how the Weathertex timber cladding painted in Monument has given such a contemporary look and feel.
The kids love their conjoined room with ‘cubby house’ inspired bunk beds. It lets them gaze at the stars from the windows above them. They also have heaps of room for all their clothes, toys and desks below the bunks.
With a family of four living in this Shack it was important to keep rooms feeling large and spacious.
So we designed a generously proportioned open plan kitchen, dining and living space. This opens onto a large deck with those amazing park and water views. The kitchen has a centre island, stone benches and heaps of storage.
High raked ceilings give that essential air of spaciousness, as does the feature wall with ‘man sized’ recessed wall mounted television.
We love the Merbau decking as much as our new owners. It complements the internal bamboo flooring of the Shack, as well as the main house materials and colour scheme.
But our favourite room in the house is the bathroom, complete with a full size bath for the kids to enjoy. The floor to ceiling tiles are breathtaking.
This Shack also has an essential separate powder room, and its own laundry with compact tub and mixer, neatly tucked within its own cupboard.
