L.A. vibes and retro styling, a marriage made in heaven. With its expansive views looking down from the Hollywood Hills, this contemporary meets mid-century home has an emphasis on indoor/outdoor living all with more than a nod to simple, sleek lines and minimal ornamentation.

An ode to rustic minimalism in Queen’s Park, this four-bedroom family home for sale presents a fusion of organic textures and earthy tones. The house unveils a nature-inspired aesthetic beyond its Edwardian façade with North African design influences blending rich colours with reclaimed materials. A spacious reception room and bespoke stone fireplace create a captivating lounge area, leading to an open-plan kitchen and dining space. Tactile elements like reclaimed wood and Arabescato marble define the kitchen and bar. Skylights and a glass wall infuse the lower level with natural light. The garden features an urban landscape with a garden room, while upstairs, a serene principal suite and three bedrooms offer comfort. A rustic cinema room on the lower ground floor adds cozy charm.

The owners found a “perfect” One big problem … it lacked personality. Enter Sydney-based design studio Esoteriko who revived it with targeted interventions such as new joinery, a fireplace and staircase, along with art curation, lighting, custom rugs, furniture, and window treatments. They connected indoor spaces to the garden, redesigned the kitchen’s double-height volume and added a delicate balustrade to the concrete stairs and custom brass pendants.

The Atelier Davis team re-thought a contemporary home with creek views infusing it with colour and personality. With a mix of vintage and new the look is a little boho and a lot casual chic. Richly coloured rugs add warmth and texture while bamboo blinds skim the views. The added bonus is a self-contained pad emphasising functionality and fun in a small space.

There’s a common and simple theme in my world of interiors – I love dark and hate white. Whilst I’m not sure how practical having a black kitchen is (I have a black tiled bathroom – I find it easily shows dust, water streaks etc), I absolutely adore this kitchen and would prefer this over a white kitchen any day. The character of this space (the black with the caramel is soooo yummy) and the graphic detail of the tiled floor is really doing it for me. Designed by Beau Geste. Photos: Amy Bartlam.
