Reviving Serenity: Stunning Transformation on the Mornington Peninsula

This mud brick home on the Mornington Peninsula required a full update including a new kitchen, flooring, painting, lighting, window treatments and furniture. The owner who’s a repeat client, wanted to move away from the ranch look into a more modern monochromatic style to suit him and his two children. It was also key that we create a functional and comfortable space for their indoor-outdoor lifestyle in which they regularly entertain.

We designed the kitchen with a central bench, including storage on both sides. The brief stated it was important to see the pool from the kitchen window when cooking. Storage was maximised by utilising the pitched roof with cupboards. Concrete floors in the open-plan kitchen, dining and family area replaced outdated terracotta tiles.

New carpet in the bedrooms to add comfort and texture. Walls and ceilings in Dulux Natural White brought new life to the pitched ceiling which has become a striking feature of the house. A very comfy sofa and ottoman was requested to enjoy evenings by the fire watching films. We kept the antique dining setting and updated it with modern chairs, rug and a painting by Ingrid Daniell.

All elements came together to create a harmonious, yet modern space that oozes serenity. My client absolutely loves his new home. Whenever I speak to him he tells me how grateful he is each day for the transformation we made to his property.
