Spaces that work
beautifully —
for you

Compact Extension Reimagined

A rear extension that added a bedroom, study nook and bathroom — all within a tight footprint. The brief was clear: no wasted space, no compromises on liveability.

Every centimetre was considered — from the positioning of the study nook to capture the afternoon light, to the bathroom layout that feels generous despite its compact size. The extension connects seamlessly with the existing home, as though it was always meant to be there. The result is a home that feels complete, comfortable and full of afternoon light.

Open-Plan Transformation

Embracing Openness

The client requested a design with an emphasis on creating more openness, with an extra large kitchen as the focal point. To achieve this, we knocked down a few walls that created unnecessary nooks and walkways. We incorporated a strut window that opens outwards to the verandah, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces.

A smaller entrance fitted with tailored storage cabinetry was recreated to privatise one side of the house wing, guiding the flow directly towards the kitchen and dining area — also creating a more private and cosy lounge area. The lounge, now discreetly hidden behind a newly extended wall, creates a sense of separation while maintaining the overall open feel. Upon entry, you are immediately drawn to the heart of the home — the kitchen and dining space.

We also took the opportunity to shift the master bedroom wall, creating a desk nook in the heart of the living space, and giving the master the necessary extra room to allow for a new wardrobe space. To maintain the open concept, we used wall panelling to cleverly conceal the master bedroom door, ensuring a seamless flow throughout the space.

White Elegance Ensuite

Sometimes a bathroom just needs to be completely reimagined. The gold-framed shower screen and pink walls had to go. In their place: a wall-to-wall floating vanity with an integrated sink, polished concrete-look flooring, frameless glass shower and clean white subway tiles throughout.

The result is a space that feels twice the size it actually is — calm, clean and quietly luxurious. No clutter, no fuss. Just good design.

1970s Bathroom Transformed

This is exactly the kind of project I love — a 1970s bathroom that still had good bones, but had never been allowed to reach its potential. The original layout had the shower and vanity in the wrong positions, the space felt dark and cramped, and those patterned tiles were doing nobody any favours.

We swapped the shower and vanity positions to create better flow, added a skylight to flood the space with natural light, and installed a wall-to-wall mirror that makes the room feel twice as large. The wood-look tiles bring warmth, the white subway tiles keep it fresh, and the frameless glass shower keeps the space open. The footprint didn't change — the thinking did.

The Kitchen That Opens Up

This compact kitchen had all the hallmarks of an older Adelaide home — a heavy timber bar dividing the kitchen from dining, overhead cupboards making everything feel low and dark. We removed the bar, added floor-to-ceiling cupboards and a custom north-facing window. The bold purple accent wall was the client’s personality coming through — and why not? Not every home has to look the same.
