这栋坚固的建筑最初建造与20世纪90年代/2000年代，是本次改造的理想建筑基础。The Stylesmiths的首席室内设计师David Puckering认为，这栋建筑有着出色的结构框架，这种设计和建造方式在当时那个年代都非常出色。但是该建筑仍然需要进行更新以适应业主的需求。这处房产就像一块空白的画布，为设计者进行重塑并再现其魅力提供了绝佳机会。

Originally constructed in the 90s/2000s, this substantial build offered the ideal foundation for the transformation that awaited. Lead interior designer David Puckering from The Stylesmiths believed that the house had excellent bones and was well-designed and built for its time, but it required an update to match the client’s vision. The property served as a blank canvas, offering the perfect opportunity to enhance and reshape its existing charm.

房屋的厨房、起居室、餐厅、主卧室和套房都经过了精心的翻新设计，融入了宁静的氛围并改进了功能。住宅的核心色调是灰粉色、金色木材、粉彩和铁锈色共同组成的基调，营造出了一种轻盈、通透和平静的氛围，让人能够联想到棕榈泉别致且松弛之感——尽管墨尔本冬天的主色调是蓝色。

The kitchen, living area, dining space, master bedroom, and ensuite were meticulously renovated, incorporating serenity and improved functionality. The overarching heart of this home is steeped in a foundation of dusty pinks, blonde timbers, pastels and rust accents, creating a light, airy, and calming atmosphere reminiscent of the chic nonchalance of Palm Springs, despite being in Melbourne where the winter blues are known to take hold.

入口处和楼梯被重新设计，这里的凹槽墙壁是特色，也是设计者最为重要的标志性作品。大厅和楼梯间的凹形墙面的设计需要与建造上进行协商，最终呈现出富有节奏感和影响力的效果，深受业主的欢迎。凹槽墙壁的设计为整个住宅定下了基调。这种节奏感鲜明的风格同样使用在开放的起居室，并无缝衔接到厨房岛台处，岛台的凹槽底座和天然石材台面形成了坚固且具有装饰性的画面，搭配天蓝色kit-kat瓷砖防溅板和美国橡木橱柜，整个厨房餐厅空间被打造为一个宁静祥和的家庭生活空间。

The entry and staircase were reworked, featuring fluted walls that stand out as the most significant statement piece. Embraced by the clients, the concave fluted walls that line the hall and stairwell required some compromises with the builder, but the rhythmic and impactful first impression it creates is well worth the effort. The fluted walls set the tone for the entire residence. This rhythmic style seamlessly connects the open plan living, leading to the kitchen island. Its fluted base and natural stone bench top provides a robust yet decorative solution, paired with azure blue kit-kat tile splash back and American oak cabinetry, transform the kitchen dining into a tranquil and serene space for family living.

进入起居空间，业主能够感受到阳光透过亚麻材质的窗帘洒在美国橡木地板上，并形成温暖而深邃的氛围。橡木细木工制品为美丽的饰品和花瓶提供了方便储存和展示的位置，并与手工制作的赤土砖壁炉相连接。手工打造的Jardan沙发采用了木质底座、铁锈色调的毛圈纹理羊毛软垫，配有aztec垫子和内置的边桌，以上设计共同形成了结构化且休闲惬意的座椅。锈粉色的手工地毯勾勒出了客厅空间。总体来说，居住空间是色调、质感和温暖的迷人组合。

Moving through to the living space, the ambiance of warmth and depth greet you with dappled sunlight that passes through the sheer linen curtains anchored by sun bleached American oak timber floors. Oak timber joinery provides handy storage and display for beautiful objects and vases, connecting to the fireplace clad in hand made terracotta tiles. A handcrafted Jardan sofa with timber base upholstered in rust toned boucle textured wool with aztec cushions and built-in side table provides a structured yet casual seating whist providing a space for a wattle flower moment. While a rusty pink hand tufted rug delineates the living room space. Overall the living space is a captivating play of tone, texture and warmth.

餐厅处还摆放了美国橡木材质的吧台，以及具有类似棕榈泉风格的餐桌，并通过毛圈羊毛餐椅和锈粉色调凸显材质的肌理，这样一来，餐厅空间、厨房和客厅便能够相互平衡。从客厅到户外烧烤区的无缝相接设计为业主的家庭聚会提供了空间。

The dining room further boasts American oak in the form of a joinery bar, and dining table encompassing the similar palm spring vibe and play on textures via the boucle wool dining chairs and rusty blush tones counterbalanced with the living room connecting the dining space, kitchen and living room to the outdoor BBQ area for seamless entertainment for family gatherings.

主卧室被营造出迷人且神秘的氛围，能够唤起人们对其探索的欲望。这里暗色调的氛围与房屋其它地方的风格区分开来，为业主在工作一整天后提供一个休息的地方。带有凹槽的落地床头板和Memphis风格的瓷砖，光线照射在空间并投射出迷人的图案，形成了迷人的视觉效果。The Stylesmiths团队将这个住宅打造为了一处宁静的度假胜地，营造出了一种引人入胜的宁静氛围。

The master bedroom exudes a captivating and mysterious atmosphere, evoking a sense of intrigue and allure.
