Luxury Heritage Conversion w Rooftop! Italian Marble Interiors 🙌🍷 Let Us In E30 Swanston St House

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I always find it fascinating exploring converted heritage homes. Traditional small facades seem to always give way to a much larger experience on the inside, with a better use of light, space and flow. The Swanston Street Home is just that. What is petite and traditional on the surface becomes expansive and contemporary on entry. I’ve never witnessed a home so centred around ‘experience’ before with unique theatrical moments where you least expect them. The result of a much considered design process between owner and architect.
This home however truly is a representation of its owners: welcoming, generous and performative. The interior is filled with drama, contrast and marble… so much marble, and it will have you feel like making an espresso or aperitif in no time. Whether entertaining for two or twenty, this home is not only ready for it, it demands it!

What a great idea. I am a big fan of marble. The marble chosen for this home is really stunning. There is something very sexy about this home. Dark materials, moody and sophisticated vibe. Gosh I love it all.

    Can’t help but think that pivot door in the living space is a complete waste of money, it can’t even swing the entire way. The black curtain rails in the dining area that are cutting through the lightwell/void is a bad detail too ... Great finishes, don’t mind the mood but some very questionable detailing that could have saved the client some serious money.

    A very beautiful house and remodel. I do think the potential drama of the near-glamourous dining room would have benefitted from a wonderful pendant light fixture, something sculptural, to be the focus of that space, a permanent centerpiece and conversation piece. It's a bit serious, this house. I don't see evidence of the personality of the Owners, their interests. Is there any art in the house? I do love the perforated steel rooftop fencing and spectacular views.

Even the master is kinda small as if u were living in a small apartment .if i were to live there im gonna feel lonely (even if im an introvert) because its too dark and i like black but the thing is they are in thhe middle that means not much window and direct light so they should have atleast make the house light or mix black with something light colored....That dramatic feeling wont help you at all coz ur suppose to feel relax at home

    @fakiola91843 жыл бұрын

    Don’t rate this one, it felt dark and depressing in most areas. The palette was too smoky/male/bland no amount of textured, soft furnishings could cosy it up, it was a sterile place. The odd dark feature wall or custom kitchen is often cool but when it’s literally walls, kitchen cabinetry, floors, stairwell, furniture and window frames it’s overkill. A young bachelor would beg to differ no doubt. The front of the property is stunning architecture though, very unusual unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. Don’t understand why she was so taken by those curtains, they looked cheap and nasty! And sectioning rooms off with the use of curtains is a huge no! Very dated and because it was first seen, back in an era where it came about due to poverty, it’s not a trend that’s ever going to make a positive come back. This house is so far from Italian flare and welcoming spaces, aside from the Italian marble, which had the potential to look stunning given the face of this property from the outside perspective, had the rest of the decor provided some strike out Italian bold colour choices throughout.
