Full home renovations
Creating cohesive Maribyrnong homes with kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, living areas and windows addressed as a single managed project. Develop a single design vision with consistent colour palettes and flooring throughout.
Kitchen renovations
Design efficient working triangles with generous storage, paired with made-to-measure window coverings. Incorporate natural light with larger windows and light-filtering sheers to soften western sun while maintaining brightness.
Bathroom renovation
Transform outdated wet areas into modern sanctuaries with updated plumbing and improved ventilation. Pair modern fixtures with custom roman blinds, shutters or moisture-appropriate fabrics for privacy and light control.
Living areas and natural light
Open up living spaces to courtyards, balconies and views with careful window placement and reflective surfaces. Soften natural light with layered curtains and blinds for generous, light-filled connected spaces.
