BRONTE PROJECT

When Leah was asked to redesign a living room in the heart of Bronte, she was drawn to a feeling of calm, warmth, and seaside sophistication. The coastal home was birthed a new and improved living area with a sandstone fireplace, which seamlessly blended with existing furniture.

The interiors are not competing for attention with their environment, but rather they are in harmony with the sky and shimmering water beyond, exuding a quiet, natural charm. While steering clear of a typical beach house aesthetic, the blues of the ocean are still well and still represented.

Natural textured materials such as timber are another unifying element throughout the home, speaking to the colours of the sandy Australian coastline.
