This new build in Palm Beach on Sydney’s picture-perfect northern beaches was built as a holiday home for its owner who dreamt of owning a light-filled, liveable and joyful beach house. Inspired by its seaside location, the home was built with brick for durability, but cladded with timber to achieve the look of an original-style beach house. The home is elegant-meets-casual and features a crisp white base, timber flooring and a palette consisting of ocean blues and sandy neutrals that have been teamed with earthy wood accents and soft sophisticated patterns. For practicality, furniture items have been covered in washable canvas and the walls have been adorned with easy-to-clean vinyl wallpapers.
