Kitchen

A considered mix of contrasting tones and textures defines Aimee and Frank’s design-savvy kitchen. Richly veined Super White Premium marble, from WK Quantum Quartz, makes the island a show stopper. Extending from one end is a built-in table in durable Navurban New Age Veneer in Balmoral, while black Viccarbe ‘Last Minute’ stools by Spanish design queen Patricia Urquiola, found at Hub Furniture, are a chic choice. Lining the workbench and splashback beyond is Costa Concreto Six+, also from WK Quantum Quartz, deemed a winner for its low maintenance appeal. “The back bench is my prep area, so I was very particular about having a hardy material,” says Aimee.

Kitchen

The kitchen is a sea of fluted 2-pac cabinetry in misty Dulux Silkwort, with cutting-edge Blum Servo Drive drawer fittings keeping clutter at bay. Aimee and Frank opted for satiny Phoenix tapware in Onyx from the Vivid Slimline range, which was carried through to the bathrooms for a unified look. A pair of Schweigen pyrolytic ovens, along with a ‘Silent’ undermount rangehood, an induction cooktop and a microwave combination oven – all from Schweigen’s state-of-the-art IN range – shoulder the hard work at the business end of the kitchen.

Dining

Overlooking the pool, the light-filled dining space is sure to be a hit at this year’s Christmas celebrations. Aimee prepares the marble-topped ‘Keel’ table from King Living with festive decorations from Designstuff. Always on the lookout for eye-catching design, the stylist selected ‘Husk’ upholstered chairs from Zuster, and a striking ‘TossB Sphere 7’ pendant from Hub for the area. Cascading sheer curtains from Lynch’s Window Fashions, motorised by Somfy, lend a pretty softness to the expansive area.

Exterior

Stone pavers trace an enticing path to the north-facing pool, already deemed one of the family’s favourite outdoor attractions. “Everyone’s bringing their bathers on Christmas Day – they’re all looking forward to their first swim here,” says Aimee. CSR Hebel PowerPanels, coated in Dulux Dieskau, were chosen for the exterior of the home.

Lounge

Aimee knew she had to have this stunning ‘Cosmic Wonderlust’ artwork by Craig Waddell as soon as she saw it. “I must have been a florist in a past life, as I’m just drawn to anything with flowers,” she says. “This is a really special piece.” Grounded by a vintage rug from Halcyon Lake, and showcasing a pair of navy ‘Kelly’ armchairs from Jardan and custom-made marble coffee tables from BBY Design, the front living room lets colour and texture do all the talking. A black ‘Axis’ track light from Lights Lights Lights and an Austral Bricks La Paloma feature wall complete the elegant picture.

Stairs

Every fixture and feature in Aimee and Frank’s home was carefully considered, including the graceful staircase that features a steel-cut stringer powder-coated in black, and American oak treads stained to match the floorboards. “We spent a lot of time getting the detail on this stair right,” says Frank. Aimee found the ideal place for one of her favourite pieces, the Jardan ‘Kelly’ ottoman in verdant Aquamarine, right underneath.

Study

It may be the home office, but there’s nothing dull about this contemporary workspace. Custom joinery is teamed with a pair of velvet King Living ‘Crescent’ ottomans and a ‘Felix’ studio sofa bed, also from King Living. “I think the mix of colours work together well here,” says Aimee. “I always try to go with an earthy tonal palette and then add one strong pop of colour, such as this emerald ottoman.” The artwork by Lottie Consalvo was found at NKN Gallery

Ensuite

Almost completely open to the bedroom, Aimee and Frank’s hotel-like bathroom is what ensuite dreams are made of. The freestanding Caroma ‘Contura’ bath, teamed with a Phoenix floor-mounted bath mixer, is the outstanding centrepiece. “Bathroom finishes are so beautiful now, so why would you want to hide them behind a wall?” says Aimee.

Ensuite

The sumptuous ensuite is a study in elegant finishes, including a vanity top in Pietra Serena Quartz by WK Quantum Quartz, and floors and walls lined in large-format ‘Elba’ marble tiles from Artedomus – a gorgeous style match to the sleeping zone.

Main Bedroom

Extra-wide engineered oak flooring in ‘California’ from Storey Floors anchors Aimee and Frank’s haven, where the ‘Encore’ bed and ‘Seymour’ leather armchair – both from King Living – set a tranquil scene. “I wanted our bedroom to feel very calm and quite minimal, so I didn’t want to clutter it or introduce lots of colour,” says Aimee.

Main Bedroom

Connected to the bedroom is a walk-in robe that has an adjoining five-star nook. “I love this beautiful dressing and make-up area next to the wardrobe,” says Aimee. “We used an off-cut of the stone from the kitchen island for the vanity top.” A Darcy & Duke velvet ottoman brings in a favourite textile. “Velvet always makes a space feel luxurious,” she says. ‘Far North Gaia’ carpet in Palm Cove, from Carpet Court, is a further tactile element. Internal drawers by Blum.

Rosie's Room

“I absolutely adore this feature wallpaper, called ‘Blossoms Mural’ by Anewall,” says Aimee. “I love flowers and, after all, Rosie is called Rosie! The wallpaper is beautiful, but not too little girly, so it will grow with her.” A white four-poster bed from House of Orange, dressed with pink linen by Castle and Things, and a striped Country Road throw, are right at home in this pretty bedroom.

Leo's Room

A black-and-white ‘Hurdle’ chair from Dowel Jones, bedlinen from Castle and Things, a minty throw from Eadie Lifestyle and an ‘Ace’ print by James Geer join forces to create a room that Leo loves. “Leo’s very into the idea of sleepovers with his cousins,” explains Aimee. “I was tossing up whether to do a bunk bed, but went with this ‘Gus’ trundle from House Of Orange instead.” Underfoot is Carpet Court’s toasty ‘Far North Gaia’ carpet in Palm Cove.

Outdoors

The custom designed La Paloma banquette from Austral Bricks makes the most of the backyard’s leafy setting. “Enjoying the outdoors is such a big focus of this home,” says Aimee, who sourced the white outdoor table, sun loungers and chairs from Huset. The outdoor sofa and coffee table are from the King Living King Cove range.

Laundry

Framed by ample amounts of storage and bench space, the LG washing machine and dryer star in the roomy layout. Finished off with matte black details, this laundry is the perfect practical space for a young family.
