This project is an exercise in distillation of space, memory, and material. Designed for a downsizer transitioning from a large family home to a waterfront apartment in Darling Point, the renovation transforms a dated 1960s floor plan into a tactile and deeply personal home that balances simplicity with richness.
Built in collaboration with craftspeople and a passionate builder, the apartment demonstrates how quality, care, and adaptability can be achieved even under the pressures of supply disruptions and cost constraints. The result is a space that elevates daily rituals and welcomes life in all its complexity — serene, expressive, and deeply human.
