BEHIND THE DESIGN | SUNDREAM

Interior designer Sarah Davey shares how she captured the essence of the Gold Coast in this coastal home by Davey Constructions.

Open-plan living, natural textures, and radiant brushed brass harmoniously cooperate to encourage a warm, functional space.

We experience the surrounding environment by completely opening up the kitchen to the alfresco, offering an unmatchable view of the city skyline.

The feel of this coastal house truly encapsulates the sun’s radiance, embracing the warmth of brushed brass with the support of bright, open-plan living.

Designed to be beautiful and practical, the kitchen provides ample space for a family to enjoy each other’s company, entertain guests, and move through the motions of daily life.

The bathroom embodies all the essential elements of a coastal sanctuary.⁠

A warm, neutral palette pairs with vibrant foliage to inspire a serene, welcoming space — one that helps you wind down at each day’s end.

An array of textures have been considerately incorporated to inspire diversity within the design. Terrazzo tiles provide a prominent foundation for rustic timber, while brushed brass advocates elegance in each corner of the space.⁠

Grey is introduced into the scheme to highlight how brushed brass can complement both warm and cool tones, establishing its admirable versatility.

The repeated concept of curved forms softens the appearance of the space, with the Round Shower Head and Elysian Commercial Pull-Out Kitchen Mixer accentuating this notion.

Located in the heart of Burleigh Heads, this luxury house has been thoughtfully designed to reflect its proximity to the beach.

Natural materials such as wood and wicker adorn the outdoor living spaces, promoting the easygoing appeal of a place to swim, read, and relax.

We experience the surrounding environment by completely opening up the kitchen to the alfresco, offering an unmatchable view of the city skyline.
