Balfour Street Residence
From industrial past to contemporary masterpiece
- Bold Transformation: The home rises from the ashes of a derelict inner-city workshop, showcasing a bold and sophisticated design that combines modern sharpness with heritage elements like a re-claimed bluestone fence.
- Striking Staircase: The entry staircase is an architectural marvel with Tas oak treads seemingly floating on a central steel stringer, creating a minimalist look that's both visually captivating and technically challenging to achieve.
- Effortless Elegance: The interior design prioritizes a soft, neutral color palette that flows seamlessly throughout, achieving a stylish, welcoming, and liveable space tailored to the family’s needs.
- Meticulous Attention to Detail: Every feature, such as the gold-plated spiral pendant light in the foyer, was carefully chosen for its impact, reflecting a commitment to quality over quantity in both design and craftsmanship.
- Harmonious Exterior: A bold contrast between charcoal and grey tones is balanced by the warmth of spotted gum wood, featured in elements like the balcony balustrade, pool area, and slatted wall screening, creating a sophisticated yet inviting exterior.
This project transforms an industrial past into a refined, contemporary home, where bold design meets meticulous craftsmanship to create a truly distinctive living space.
