CURVE ON COVE

Curve on Cove exemplifies the successful realisation of a bespoke family home, built on a challenging, irregular block within the CBD. This project prioritised a seamless blend of functionality, aesthetics, and personal expression. Key design elements, including an open floor plan with a central fireplace, an expansive void, and a fluid connection to outdoor living, were meticulously crafted to meet the homeowner's vision.

The residence features a master bedroom with textured walls and stunning views, elegantly designed bathrooms with fluted glass and brass fixtures, and a shared children's room fostering play and togetherness. Sustainability was integrated through insulation, solar energy, and strategic natural lighting. Material selection balanced timeless appeal with practical functionality, while cohesive design elements created a unified aesthetic throughout.

Statement pieces, such as stone walls, timber ceilings, and large pendant lights, served as focal points, and personal touches, like a vintage record cabinet, reflected the homeowner's unique interests. Challenges, including logistical complexities and pandemic-related material shortages, were overcome through meticulous planning and effective communication.

Budget considerations were addressed through open dialogue and prioritisation of key living areas. The final result exceeded expectations, delivering functional spaces and a cohesive aesthetic that aligns perfectly with the homeowner's lifestyle. Curve on Cove offers valuable insights into the custom home building process, highlighting the importance of planning, communication, and thoughtful design choices in creating a truly personalised and satisfying living experience.
