Fitness entrepreneur Kayla Itsines has long been synonymous with strength and discipline, but inside her newly completed Adelaide home, it’s a different kind of energy that takes centre stage: calm, warm and an almost meditative sense of ease.
After months of renovation, the influencer has unveiled a series of serene, sun-drenched spaces that feel as considered as they are liveable. While she admits she didn’t share every room, what she has revealed offers a clear glimpse into a home designed for both family life and quiet retreat.
At its heart, the home holds a palette that feels quite Australian. Think pale ash timbers – herringbone floors from Woodcut run throughout – paired with natural white walls and layers of softly veined stone sourced from Signorino Tile Gallery. The result is a look that doesn’t demand attention, but gently holds it, letting the natural materials to take the lead.
A kitchen in quiet luxury
In the kitchen, soft luxury takes shape through thoughtful detailing. A sculptural island in Austral Dream stone from Signorino Tile Gallery anchors the space, while surrounding joinery in white mountain oak by Navurban brings warmth without heaviness. Brushed tapware from Astra Walker adds a subtle gleam, catching the light as it shifts across the room throughout the day. Tucked just beyond, steel-framed doors by Steela help blur the boundary between inside and out.
However one small detail is what got tails wagging on Instagram.
“The matched plug sockets is one of the most aesthetic beauties,” one user wrote.
“When you’re PowerPoints aren’t the white plastic, that’s a flex,” said another.
“ok I’ll have power points in eyesight if they can be like this!!!”
Moody bathrooms
That same sense of restraint carries into the bathrooms, where finger tiles in marble and moody browns are offset by sweeping curves in marble basins and a show-stopping curved shower. In one space, darker toned surfaces create a moody, cocoon-like feel, softened by simple globe lighting. In another, pale stone tiles wrap curved walls, creating a sense of continuity.
Throughout Kayla Itsines’ home, custom cabinetry and built-in joinery establish a consistent rhythm. Timber details appear again and again, guiding you from one space to the next and reinforcing a cohesive design language. Interior finishes, led by Hong Henwood, bring this vision together with a light touch, making sure every material feels intentional without overwhelming the space.
A lesson in laid-back living
The living area is where the home’s personality reveals itself most fully. Furniture pieces from Jardan, Coco Republic and MCM House introduce a relaxed, layered aesthetic, anchored by a low sofa and warm timber tones. A sleek stone fireplace stretches across the room, blending function with a refined, almost gallery-like presence.
Spaces made for rest
Bedrooms follow suit, showcasing softness over statement. Upholstered bedheads, tonal linens and gentle curves create a restful atmosphere, while carefully chosen pieces add depth. In the kid’s rooms, touches from Adairs and Temple & Webster bring a playful yet considered approach, balancing practicality with style.
Stunning utilities
Even the more functional zones have been elevated. In the laundry, integrated appliances from LG Australia sit seamlessly within timber joinery, paired with stone surfaces that echo the broader material palette. It’s a reminder that no space has been treated as an afterthought.
An exterior to remember
Step outside and the connection between indoors and out becomes even more apparent. Expanses of glass open onto a streamlined pool and landscaped garden, with the architecture designed to capture light from morning through to evening. By day, the home feels airy and expansive; by night, it glows softly from within.
Brought to life with builder Morgan Build and a suite of Australian brands and makers, the renovation feels cohesive, grounded and deeply personal. It’s not about excess, but rather a quiet confidence in material, tone and form.
The result is a home that feels as good as it looks: warm, functional and effortlessly beautiful.
And if this is only the beginning, there’s clearly more to come.
