Georgian staircase with dark green panelling and dado rail.

Re-modelling of a landmark historic building into light-filled apartments. The design opened up the space to celebrate the character of the historic building, added external terraces and significantly improved the energy performance using natural materials and innovative technology.

To brighten and warm the room, the ceiling between the lower ground floor and the ground floor was removed, allowing the south-facing light to flow through the front of the house. A sculptural staircase was added to connect the living room and the hallway.

We’re beyond excited to share these incredible photos that beautifully highlight our Victorian tiles in a stunning period property. The talented team at Kerv Interiors worked their magic, keeping the charm of the classic features while breathing new life into the space with bold patterns, rich colours, and varied textures. The original character of the property shines through, but there’s a fresh twist that makes everything feel so much more vibrant and alive. From the intricate tile work to the thoughtfully chosen decor, every detail has been carefully considered and tastefully executed. A massive thank you to Kerv Interiors for their vision and expertise in bringing out the best in our tiles. We're proud to have been part of such a beautiful transformation, and we're truly grateful for the chance to collaborate on this special project.

This beautiful and open American Ash stair fits perfectly into its space. The risers have been kept open and a timber balustrade lends a nice texture to the space, making the stair a sculpture in its own right. Mark Scowen

Built in birch plywood drawers and cupboards with white glass clad drawer and cupboard fronts. All with touch opening mechanisms. Minimal contemporary aesthetic with no maintenance issues due to the use of high gloss white glass. The built in storage unit was designed to make the best use of the available space under the sloping ceiling.

This staircase exudes a clean and neat appearance, adorned with wall lighting features that enhance its overall aesthetics. The design is characterized by a comfortable simplicity, achieving an elegant look that seamlessly blends functionality with style.

With views out to sea, ocean breezes, and an east-facing aspect, our challenge was to create 2 light-filled homes which will be comfortable through the year. The form of the design has been carefully considered to compliment the surroundings in shape, scale and form, with an understated contemporary appearance. Skillion roofs and raked ceilings, along with large expanses of northern glass and light-well stairs draw light into each unit and encourage cross ventilation. Each home embraces the views from upper floor living areas and decks, with feature green roof gardens adding colour and texture to the street frontage as well as providing privacy and shade. Family living areas open onto lush and shaded garden courtyards at ground level for easy-care family beach living. Materials selection for longevity and beauty include weatherboard, corten steel and hardwood, creating a timeless 'beach-vibe'.
