Hot off the press

Drum roll ... featured in the latest Belle magazine Scott Weston has sent us the photos of this luxe Sydney apartment. You'll remember this apartment from my earlier post where Scott took us through the "befores", his design process and some of the "durings". It's a tip of a top hat towards Art Deco but with a modern quirky twist. (Click here for a reminder.) The finished home has been kept under wraps until its debut in Belle today but Scott has saved a few more photos exclusively for us. (Great shots are by photographer Nick Watt.)
"It's now complete and the Client has moved in and brought a fantastic tapestry of belongings, artwork and furniture along with all the bespoke joinery we have designed and created the next all important layer... stamping the apartment as their own. It's just come out in the February March issue of Belle and I thought you would like to see areas that have not been published... the all important main bathroom that really is a beautiful space to be in, the detailed birds eye joinery to master bedroom and the simple but chic kitchen with the lilac interior."
The apartment is a play on old and new, hidden colour (Scott's trademark coloured bespoke joinery is evident in drawer linings, subtle but striking), Art Deco meets modern with a stunning art and glass collection and Fornasetti cabinets to die for. My favourite rooms? The quirky, richly hued, tiled bathrooms referencing their deco past tease you. Old or new? So much more after the jump including "during" shots that make you wonder how all this loveliness came to be.
And you'll find it all here in the latest Belle magazine.

Simply Beautiful - Love the entrance, wall pictures, the pink in the bathroom goes so well...The view seems fantastic - Love it !!!!
I just re-read the original post about this...but I do remember it clearly when you first posted about it. It's lovely, but you know, it was actually quite lovely before the renovation...I would've kept the Kafka furniture if it was mine!!
Apparently all the Kafka furniture was so badly sun damaged that it was beyond saving. All that could be rescued was the beautiful hall console and mirror.
Wow, what a gorgeous transformation. The picture of the pool the living room is totally captivating.
Great pops of color!
It's serene and exciting with a great view! Summer looks pretty nice from here.
GASP! They have the Fornasetti armoire! Does anyone have about 14 grand to give me so I can finally have one too? PLEASE????
Stunning! I love the old/new deco tiles in the baths.... harkening back to another era...super cool... one thing I did not prefer, glass collection inside the fireplace.... that disturbs me.... how's about some wood ....?
other than that... BRAVO! gorgeous re-do!
Every room is a breath of fresh air. Really, really amazing.
I wish my pink-tiled bath looked this hot!
Thanks for the post. I'll get my copy of belle asap.

luv those, i can feel the air!
the bright bathroom tiles can certainly brighten up any sleepyhead in the morning!
Absolute PERFECTION!
Wow, Scott has done it again and created a unique take on art deco glamour with a thoroughly modern twist. Spectacular setting and I love the joinery and the circular mirrors, tres chic. Well done Scott ... now can you come to New York and build my dream home please!??!?
Thankyou so much for the construction photos and the working drawings! As a designer its always interesting to see how much detail etc is in the working drawings to get such a great result! I love the idea of bright internal joinery carcasses.
Inspiring Again!
