Description from the designers
VIVID Architects ready the initial concept design for this house, a modern reboot of the far more classical architectural designs. SAOTA – Stefan Antoni Olmesdahl Truen Architects and ANTONI ASSOCIATES had been then appointed to refine & create the style and oversee the project to completion.  The facade is Georgian inspired but the modern aspect of the appear is driven by a dynamic of recessed and projecting panels and cubes that create courtyards and terraces that articulate and add interest to what is a extremely organised shell. The interiors, by ANTONI ASSOCIATES, are equally sculpted.


Entering the property, a large light-filled entrance hall divides the two ground-floor wings which consist of a series of living spaces that open out to a private courtyard and the extremely edgy Franchesca Watson landscaped garden beyond.

For the design and style ethic inside the property, ultra-slick finishes and a futuristic house-tech edge were chosen. Stripped back ceilings with recessed information cleverly hide curtain tracks and act as a mechanism through which wooden function walls can disappear out of sight, lending each room a clean crisp finish. Clusters of directional spotlights were chosen to add ambience and subtly highlight architectural nuances, such as the floating stairs.




Organic materials had been utilised to add warmth and texture throughout. Jerusalem stone flooring extends from the major entrance by means of most of the internal and external spaces giving way to fumed oak floors in the living and dining areas, as properly as American cedar for the doors and pergolas and Ipe for the pool decking.
This all-natural but uncluttered linear language was carried by means of to the decor by Mark Rielly of ANTONI ASSOCIATES who opted for solid timber pieces. Leather and suede were selected for the upholstery. Feature lights are also strategically placed to add drama and definition to diverse spaces. The symbiosis in between the decor and architecture is such that the general impression is that of a clean but cautiously regarded scheme that soothes with its higher-end modern day appeal.
