MURRIVERIE ROAD

This knock-down and rebuild was a true collaboration with my client and her young family. With the initial floor plan already designed, we worked together to finesse the kitchen and bathroom layouts before selecting every finish and material throughout the home. The process was made especially enjoyable by a client who trusted me completely and never second-guessed the vision, knowing I had her back when it came to creating the look and feel of the home.

Natural timbers and stone bring warmth and character, while the design remains relaxed, practical and very much made for family life. My client loves to cook and entertain, so the kitchen and dining areas were carefully considered to be both highly functional and social. The result is a warm, inviting home that can handle everything from everyday family life to a house full of guests — without ever feeling too precious.
