St Ives Residential Renovation – Interior Design Project

A Home for Pause, Light and Family

Tucked into the leafy surrounds of Sydney’s upper north shore, this family home was reimagined to invite in light, openness and calm. The brief centred on enhancing natural connection—ushering daylight deep into the floor plan while creating soft zones for everyday rituals. Through considered spatial planning, subtle material layering and an emphasis on flow, the design transforms a once-closed layout into a serene, light-filled retreat that supports family life with quiet confidence.
