BLACK WITH WHITE

After living in a 1950s weatherboard cottage for some time, interior designer Jess Hunter and her husband Sam were set on a contemporary new build for their next family home. But finding a great block they could build on freely in a heritage area proved challenging.

To avoid compromising their dream, the couple found an empty block in 2017 and engaged an architect to come up with a clever design that met the local heritage requirements and gave them the new home they were after. In the plans, the Georgian-style cottage was placed at the front and linked to two equally new pavilions, which met all the council’s criteria. They were able to come up with the perfect balance on the outside and on the inside they could do whatever they wanted.”

Another key part of the brief was a home that sat comfortably in the surrounding landscape and had a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. This was achieved by allowing a comfortable amount of room between the pavilions and blurring the boundaries between indoors and out. “This design has encouraged us to utilise and live on the whole property,” says Jess.

OFFICE One open and one closed shelf strikes the perfect balance in this compact workspace. The chair is from GlobeWest. KITCHEN (opposite) Black Dekton Domoos benchtops by Cosentino complement the concrete floor. The appliances are all by Miele.

“On the inside, we could do whatever we wanted.”
