Cabramatta Federation

The transformation of this Federation home involved creating contemporary, flexible new spaces with modern finishes, while complementing the heritage details and the client’s existing art and furniture pieces.

The kitchen was designed for both food preparation and entertaining, balancing contemporary efficiency with classic elegance. A striking Artedomus super white marble island anchors the space, complemented by a Carrara tile splashback. A walk-in pantry, hidden behind brass mesh shaker panels, offers ample storage and functionality. Custom cabinetry, painted in soft grey/white and deep blue, extends just below the architraves, enhancing the ceiling height. Brass accents in lighting and hardware add warmth. The layout now flows seamlessly into the bright living and dining areas, with an archway connecting the kitchen to the hallway.

In the master ensuite, grey and white marble enhance the curved space, while a full-height wall separates the walk-in shower from the vanity, providing both functionality and shade. The powder room features a custom vanity with a black steel frame, Carrara marble top, and bold patterned tiles, while the family shower room and laundry embrace soft, warm tones.

The result is a timeless, serene interior that reflects the clients’ modern lifestyle while respecting the home’s historic charm.
