The collection of art…
As for a private home, the rooms of this Melbourne townhouse are small in size, and in general, the total area is quite modest. Therefore, the designers had to try hard to competently use every inch of space and create a really comfortable home for a family with children. At the same time, the authors…
A family with four children lives in this interesting home in Melbourne, while the interiors do not at all resemble the space suitable by the younger generation. On the contrary, they look adult and self-sufficient. The designer chose a modern style and noble materials: marble, wood, stone, and to make the look less austere he…
Netherlands and Australia are separated by more than 15 thousand kilometers, but this did not stop designers from creating a Flemish-style house in Melbourne, but with a modern aesthetic.

In her projects, architect Sarah Henry always strives not to lose touch with nature. She adhered to the same concept when designing her own home in Melbourne. Large opening windows, simple brick and concrete finishes, wooden furniture and always a lot of solutions for planting: flower niches, a well-kept garden and an area with an…
The modern design of this historic Victorian home of designer Lucy Bock in Melbourne is built on an unusual contrasting combination of white and all sorts of bright shades of blue. Almost nothing here tells that this house is more than 100 years old – only one of the facades from the street was preserved…
