First impression count as you enter this custom-built Horizon Homes property at Kellyville. The home opens into a stylish entryway, with soaring double height ceilings. It’s often said that the kitchen is the heart of the home. And that’s literally true with this home. With the kitchen in the centre of the ground floor, this home provides ample formal and informal living spaces on the ground floor. At the rear of the house, a rumpus room, living room and dining room overlooking a large alfresco kitchen and dining area make this house the perfect entertainer. It’s functional, too, with a butler’s pantry, and laundry (with outdoor access) leading off the kitchen. There’s also a mudroom – with bespoke joinery – next to the garage. Upstairs is a mezzanine office area and four bedrooms, including a luxurious main suite with dressing room, ensuite and private balcony. Outdoor areas were important to the owners of this knockdown rebuild. While the house is large at almost 454m2, it fills only half the block. That means there’s a generous backyard. A central courtyard provides further outdoor space. Of course, this courtyard – as well as being a gorgeous focal point – has the added advantage of bringing light into the centre of the house.

WINNER OF IDS DESIGNER OF THE YEAR AWARD 2014 Like all the spaces we design, this room is totally about the people who live in it. True, the room started as a blank empty box, and while this couple likes architectural interest, the low ceiling was a challenge. Our solution was to add a wonderful niche – perfect to correct the uneven window wall AND indulge an architectural craving. Au courante grass cloth wallpaper and a modern rug are the perfect foil for the refreshing furnishings and appointments that span from 19th century to mid-century to modern.

Gorgeous dining room, bespoke dining table with solid timber top and aged brass base, upholstered dining chairs and customised bubble light pendant. The darker wallpaper gives a cosy intimate feel and the high end finishes ensure a luxurious room for fabulous dinner parties.

This photo was features in Florida Design Magazine. The dining room features a custom walnut wine room holding more than 100 bottles, a Swaim walnut dining table, Grafton Furniture’s nickel nailhead-trimmed leather chairs that sit atop a marble medallion center design edged with a marble mosaic and a chandelier created with dramatic crystal bead swags. The room also features wide blade window shutters, 8 in American Walnut flooring surround the marble mosaic center, crown molding on the ceiling, Venetian plaster walls, 8 inch base boards and transom windows. The table is a 3-inch thick custom walnut table from Swain sits on arcs and stainless steel uprights. The stair case in the background is an American Walnut tread and handrail stair case. The artwork on the wall is titled Poppies by artist Donald Sultan.

This formal dining room is a masterpiece of southern living. The custom upholstery and drapery warm up the space with luxurious fabrics. The crown molding and wainscot give the construction detailing a southern flair.

So in the dining room, for example, we have Louis XVI chairs and a quirky, contemporary crystal chandelier. I designed the bookcases so that the wife would have plenty of space for books. I wanted them to be red, but sometimes red can go too red. To bring it down a bit, we started with an undercoat of high-gloss black, and then applied red over that. At the end of the process, we were hand-rubbing so that some of the dark showed through, which really added depth to the red. Photographer: Lucas Allen

In this fabulous dining room, we mixed the traditional with contemporary design. Yes you can mix it up. We chose to anchor the room with a color pallette of blue white and orange. The rug is a chain link design with a background of orange with blue as the chain link. We duplicated the design onto the ceiling. We chose to drape the table in a custom tablecloth in an overscaled floral pattern in navy and white. We drew from the navy and painted the walls using it. The table cloth fabric was also used as the drapery fabric. On the drapery, we chose to use an inverted pleat and use chrome nail heads as the detailed anchor. Its all in the details that make it special. The table is set using a blue and white color pallete as well sprinkled iwth the orange from the rug. We chose to mix up the plating using a white dinner plate, blue ikat patterned salad plate and a sorbet glass to add height. The napkin is an orange and white egyptian pattern. Every table should have a center piece so we chose a pair of white lacquered urns which we filled with a white orchid ball. The center of the table has a white porcelian horse to provide interest. Over the dining table, we chose this beautiful orchid chandelier from Austrialia. It is made of mylar and is spectaclur. A true focal point! At the opposite end of the room, we placed a pair of silver chests with a pair of bulbous lamps in white. Centered over the top of these chests is a flamed mirror in chrome. You don't have to have a single long chest as a console, a pair works just as well and is also unexpected. For the artwork we chose a series of three long painting which we selected not only because of their beauty but for their shape. One is an original from an artist that we admire, the other two are images we found captivating and placed on lucite. Enjoy!
