It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Carolina Herrera Palm Beach by David Lucido.

West Bend House, located on a lush site in the Melbourne suburb of Northgate, offers stunning views of the wildlife belt and onto the city. MRTN Architects designed the home and Brave New Eco handled the interiors for a family of five. The house is fully electric with sustainable features like solar power and rainwater tanks. Custom joinery and detailed interiors, including a timber kitchen, plush living room, and functional study, were crafted with the clients’ needs in mind, creating a warm, practical, and beautiful living space.

“Conceptually the house is a protective structure planted on the rock, part cave, part tree house, which wraps around a north facing central courtyard. Situated along the ridge line of Castlecrag in Cammeraygal Country, the greatest challenge of this steeply sloping site was how to harness northern light and create private outdoor areas that enjoyed this aspect whilst opening to the 180 degree city and harbour views. Sectionally, the house extends the sense of the natural ground line, reaching to Middle Harbour and ocean beyond. This sets up a bilateral relationship between the smaller scaled, more intimate moments in the native garden, while on the other, generously opening up to the sky and the horizon.”

Studio Todd Raymond has crafted a modern yet rustic weekend retreat in the Hudson Valley. Featuring double-height spaces, massive barn beams and concrete floors, the design is both eclectic and cohesive. Beams delineate zones, while a neutral palette of creams, greys, and blacks enhances the aesthetic. This retreat epitomizes contemporary rustic charm.
