Let your tiles take centre stage in the bathroom! The gorgeous monochrome ensuite designed by Renette from By Urban creates so much character and class! We love the combination of pattern hexagon tiles paired beautifully with our wall tiles.

Weather House is a bespoke home for a young, nature-loving family on a quintessentially compact Northcote block. Our clients Claire and Brent cherished the character of their century-old worker's cottage but required more considered space and flexibility in their home. Claire and Brent are camping enthusiasts, and in response their house is a love letter to the outdoors: a rich, durable environment infused with the grounded ambience of being in nature. From the street, the dark cladding of the sensitive rear extension echoes the existing cottage!s roofline, becoming a subtle shadow of the original house in both form and tone. As you move through the home, the double-height extension invites the climate and native landscaping inside at every turn. The light-bathed lounge, dining room and kitchen are anchored around, and seamlessly connected to, a versatile outdoor living area. A double-sided fireplace embedded into the house’s rear wall brings warmth and ambience to the lounge, and inspires a campfire atmosphere in the back yard. Championing tactility and durability, the material palette features polished concrete floors, blackbutt timber joinery and concrete brick walls. Peach and sage tones are employed as accents throughout the lower level, and amplified upstairs where sage forms the tonal base for the moody main bedroom. An adjacent private deck creates an additional tether to the outdoors, and houses planters and trellises that will decorate the home’s exterior with greenery. From the tactile and textured finishes of the interior to the surrounding Australian native garden that you just want to touch, the house encapsulates the feeling of being part of the outdoors; like Claire and Brent are camping at home. It is a tribute to Mother Nature, Weather House’s muse.

We were asked to redesign a large garden in Wandsworth, SW18. It needed to be child-friendly, with a sunken trampoline and a large real grass lawn and plenty of space to entertain and enjoy the sun. Also our client was anxious to keep the garden private, and to block views into the garden where possible. We were fortunate to be able to enjoy a number of mature trees in other gardens, and this allowed us to focus more on the medium and lower layers of planting. We mixed long-flowering shrubs and perennials with small multi-stemmed trees, all of which were planted with a long season of interest in mind. The planting around the sunken trampoline had to be kept low so the children could be seen from the house, and also robust incase it got landed on!

Das ehemalige Schlafzimmer wurde zum Kinderzimmer. Dafür ließen wir die Tür in der tragenden Wand um 30 cm versetzen. Diese relativ kleine Maßnahme gab uns die Möglichkeit, zwischen Bad und Kinderzimmer als Durchgang eine Ankleide zu schaffen. So konnte der Kleiderschrank aus dem Kinderzimmer ausgelagert werden. Für Bett und Schreibtisch samt Regalen reicht die verkleinerte Fläche damit völlig aus. Glaselemente oberhalb der Tür leiten Tageslicht in die Ankleide. Sie ist – im Gegensatz zum Rest der Wohnung – schlicht in weiß gehalten, um die Farben der Kleidung nicht zu verfälschen. Auch die neutrale und gezielte Ausleuchtung trägt dazu bei.

The client had undergone recent renovations which had modernised their original home dramatically. The client was looking for a landscape design that would help to finish off the house renovation and provide some planting outlook from the various spaces. eScape was given an open ended brief, but with the intent to the create a unique design that would mature over time into a timeless, formal, contemporary style. The planting palette needed to integrate with the existing design and lighting was used extensively throughout. Photography Ron Tan
