MODERN MEDITERRANEAN
Lean into the casual ease of this coastal pairing with suitably organic finishes and rich accents with a marine-inspired decadence.
CONTEMPORARY CLASSIC
Scalloped brickwork makes a statement while terracotta tones and rich, raw finishes create a symphony of texture accented by pops of bronze and charcoal.
URBAN ESCAPE
The textural shades of charcoal, chocolate and umber, accented by touches of gold and polished concrete, are lifted by the inclusion of statement materials and gentle bursts of green.
NEUTRAL GROUND
Tones of terracotta blend seamlessly with decorative accents such as the ornamental block and raw finishes of the selected brickwork.
Our Most Loved House Styles
We've compiled 8 of Australia's most loved house styles and have carefully paired them with one of our colour
palettes that will help bring it to life. From Classic Hamptons to Box Modern and everything in between, explore
Australia's most loved house styles and discover your design direction.
CLASSIC HAMPTONS
Classic in its architecture and timeless in its aesthetic, Hamptons style crosses the thresholds of coastal and traditional, modern and minimalist, with a touch of glamour. A neutral palette dotted with accents of ocean-inspired hues, warming hints of timber and an abundance of natural light are all at the core of this timeless decorating style.
PALM SPRINGS MODERN
The iconic calling card of this classic mid-century favourite easily lends itself to the Australian modernist aesthetic. Breeze Blocks and statement brickwork invite a subdued palette of mixed materials, clean lines and playful glamour, with pops of bright colour providing a balance of fun and functionality.
INDUSTRIAL URBAN
While its origins can be traced back to the factory floor, the residential form of this look is about imperfections and raw, textural finishes. Brickwork provides a coarse, textural feature while balancing smooth and intricate detailing with softer finishes provides the play on materiality central to an industrial aesthetic.
BOX MODERN
Dark, moody and bold or white, bright and tonal finishes make for a crisp contemporary palette that has become increasingly popular within the modern Australian aesthetic. Create a feeling of warmth with textured surfaces in complementary tones for a pleasing palette that enhances that casual vacation feel.
NATURAL CONTEMPORARY
Based on a gentle palette of nudes, sand and off-whites, modern Australian builds tend to favour a mix of materials that speak to the surrounding nature. Organic materials like stone and textured surfaces make a quiet statement accented by charcoal elements and natural timbers.
MODERN FARMHOUSE
Rustic, minimal, cosy and modern – this style allows you to highlight a multitude of different elements from exposed brick to timber beams, boards and battens, with an aesthetic that adds instant warmth and character and sets your home up for timeless appeal.
MEDITERRANEAN
This particular style is all about texture and rich, warming neutrals with additions of natural colours like soft sage, terracotta and fawn. A mixture of luxury European aesthetic with a casual Australian ease, contemporary villa style leans into the grandeur without pretension.
FRENCH PROVINCIAL
Arguably one of the most enduring interior design styles of all time, the focus on combining beauty and elegance with pastoral, country-style features is paramount to recreating this look and feel for contemporary living. Ornate carvings, mouldings and simple textures by way of soft brickwork, porcelain tiles and natural stone create a rustic sophistication.
