Following a complete architectural and interior transformation, this light-filled, welcoming family home now makes the most of its unique location overlooking Gordons Bay in Sydney’s east. On every level of this multi-layered house, the shifting colours and dynamics of the ocean view take pride of place. Inside, natural timber finishes and shades of stone balance with a thoroughly modern aesthetic, and mirror the close ambient and structural kinship of the house’s exterior with the surrounding landscape and elements. Here, two environments—outside and in—can be appreciated as one.
