Family home

Polished concrete walls combining natural timber elements

Steel reinforcing sculpture for stair balustrade

Exciting inspiring spaces that also provide intimacy.

Located on the ridge top of Sydney's escarpment overlooking the beach side suburb of Bondi, a three level curved concrete wall is the core of this house with ‘holes punched out of it’ to enable the occupants to pass through to different zones.

Frameless glass rails become ‘invisible’  so as not to impede on the extensive views.

Timber floors, stone feature walls, rugs and furnishings combine with the polished concrete 'core' to provide warmth.
