Bronte House
Sitting a stone’s throw away from the surf in beautiful Bronte, this top to bottom renovation and extension was a wonderful opportunity to work with beloved clients a second time around. With three nearly grown children, it was time to create a well deserved adult haven; a forever home filled with beautiful furnishings, lighting and textiles. With a brief of ‘Modern Australian Beach House’ we worked our magic within this c. 1930s home across the home’s four bathrooms, four bedrooms and multiple living spaces, creating bespoke moments with imported lighting, plaster, hand made tiles, vintage pieces, marble and steel. Solid timber furnishings and joinery elements create a luxuriously tactile experience.

Jill’s incredible attention to the details made this whole process a joy. It was the little touches that made all the difference, a curved door, a stone architrave, a custom steel shower door or a vintage rug, every choice was perfection. Her custom furniture pieces we used throughout took it all to the next level of originality and one-of-a kind exclusivity. Each room has its own personality yet as a whole it works in total harmony. The transformation
is truly unbelievable. Jill is a talented and creative designer with an expert eye for detail. I loved working with her, and I could never have imagined the transformation and what we were able to achieve.
