The most extraordinary homes can result from taking a leap of faith. That was the case for Lillian and Adrian, the owners of this bright and spacious inner-Melbourne abode. They were clear on their must haves: lashings of light and a separate studio for Adrian’s woodwork projects. They were less certain about the design or style specifics, so put their trust in the creative vision of Rob Kennon Architects – and secured an award-winning home.
OPEN-PLAN AREA “We open all the doors whenever the weather permits,” says Lillian. “It feels like we’re sitting on a verandah.” The kitchen has an in-line layout for maximum efficiency of space. Hay ‘Revolver’ stools, Space. Appliances, Miele. Tapware, Brodware. Skylights, Velux. DINING The dining table by local furniture designer Thomas Lentini is teamed with classic Cesca chairs by Marcel Breuer, Dedece. Flos ‘265’ wall light, Euroluce. Artwork by Brooke Holm. Vase, Fenton & Fenton. Assorted planters from Hay and The Plant Society. Assorted ceramics from Petite and Modern Times. KITCHEN Cloud-like Super White dolomite, sourced from CDK Stone, provides a soothing counterpoint in the predominantly white interior.
