Editorial: The Local Project Issue 12 | Living In The Landscape - Matagouri by Fearon HayOn New Zealand’s South Island, poised between the changeable expanse of Lake Wakatipu and the monumental rawness of the Remarkables (Kawarau) mountain range, is Matagouri, a residence by Fearon Hay Architects that draws from its striking natural setting, absorbing and counterbalancing it to cultivate deep sanctuary. Mediating between breathtaking alpine outlooks and an atmosphere of rich domesticity, Matagouri finds its identity through elemental materiality and meticulous craftsmanship. A duality between the brutal beauty of its location and the pragmatics of crafting a resolved and innovative home have informed a place that harbours a poignant sense of living within the landscape.ARCHITECTURE & INTERIORS Fearon Hay Architects PHOTOGRAPHY Sam Hartnett BUILD Bayshore Builders INTERIORS Fearon Hay Architects & Dawdy Brown LANDSCAPE o2 Landscapes STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING Cuthbert Ashmore Consultants GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING GeoSolve
Editorial: Est Living | Home Tour - Avenue Marceau Apartment by Hélène Van MarckeAvenue Marceau Apartment has emerged from a contemporary design intervention by Hélène Van Marcke, rearranged for discerning modern living with an inherent respect for its heritage. “The owner’s bought the sixth-floor apartment and all the service rooms and spaces of the floor above,” Hélène Van Marcke explains. “The sixth floor was beautifully proportioned but needed some love, while the seventh floor needed to be fully demolished and rebuilt, including the roof structure!”READ FULL FEATUREARCHITECTURE & INTERIOR DESIGN Hélène Van MarckePHOTOGRAPHY Thomas De Bruyne
Book: A Piccolo House‘A Piccolo House’ was realised in and engagement with Piccolo House and ERA-co. Excerpt from book:This book shines a light on the people, places and qualities that come together to define a Piccolo House. It narrates our journey in refinement and expresses across its chapters those distinctions that see an apartment transcend the limitations of design alone to create homes in sync with their urban village neighbourhoods. It champions the global relevance of the architects and interior designers who have been instrumental in understanding and interpreting the Piccolo philosophy harmoniously and within the context of each House so that they are independently expressive yet merit the same touchstones to their success. This book recognises the similarities across each Piccolo House by talking naturally to their common ground and is a manifesto exploring the way each iteration yields to the one before, always raising the benchmark for residential design through a dedication to creating homes that look and feel exceptional.

Editorial: The Local Project Issue 11 - Mossy Point by Edition OfficeWhen Kim Bridgland, Co-Director of Edition Office, was asked by extended family to design a house in Mossy Point, a home that embodies the studio’s penchant for crafting buildings of graceful austerity unfolded, cultivated to foster a sense of clarity both internally and externally. Looking down over a topography of roofs, treetops, box gutters, back sheds and beyond to the endless expanse of the sea, Mossy Point House has emerged with a design language that overtly responds to aspect.Nestled at the midpoint of a landscape that tapers towards the crescent-shaped coastline of the Tasman Sea, Mossy Point is a sleepy haven on the southern New South Wales shoreline. Swelling with holiday makers in the summer months, although without quite the same intensity as nearby Batemans Bay, it is a place with a strong community spirit and a resonant equanimity between nature and an established residential frontier. The elevated site captures these qualities and basks in the view of the ocean beyond the town. “In one sense it’s a challenging site,” admits Kim, “with part of the design focused on resolving the view. In another sense it’s extraordinary because of the view, which takes in the beach, bay and [Tomaga] river.”READ FULL FEATURE ARCHITECTURE, INTERIORS & STYLING Edition Office PHOTOGRAPHY Rory Gardiner BUILED Smith and PrimmerLANDSCAPE Florian Wild ENGINEERING Geoff Metzler & Associates JOINERY Matrix Joinery Solutions
Project Profile: Barwon Heads Residence by Simone HaagBarwon Heads was a residence conceived long before it became a reality. Twenty years ago, its current owner implored the then-owner of the Barwon Heads site to sell it to her should it ever come up for sale. Five years ago it did, and Sarah and her husband purchased it with the hope of building an Australian beach house which will one day become their forever home. Surrounded by four family members who live on the same street, another family home behind and various aunts, uncles, godparents and cousins a stones throw away, the current iteration is an elegantly resolved, light-drenched home which mediates perfectly between large informal gatherings of friends and family and a discerning appreciation for antipodean design, personal sentimentality and art.ARCHITECTURE & INTERE DESIGN TectureBUILDER Built by WilsonFURNITURE ART & OBJECT Team Simone Haag LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT Bethany WilliamsonPHOTOGRAPHY Timothy Kaye

Project Profile: Akmē by BiasolAkme (a derivative of ‘acme,’ meaning the highest point of achievement) is a Melbourne beauty salon transcending emblematic expectations in both atmosphere and aesthetics. Elegant and minimalist form unifies interiors, styling and branding to shape a place that eschews clinical design to cultivate an inviting sense of sanctuary in the heart of South Yarra’s urban milieu. Across two levels, a curation of neutral tones defines a considered approach to materiality which draws attention to natural patinas and textures, accentuating the tangible warmth and enduring beauty of each and imbuing harmony and balance throughout.Akme falls effortlessly into rhythm with discerning lifestyle patterns, advocating for luxurious self-care through design gestures which place emphasis on wellness and ritual and allow clients to rediscover their inner and outer allure as the epitome of natural beauty.PHOTOGRAPHY Timothy KayeBUILD MIC Projects
Editorial: Est Living - Home Tour | Brighton Residence by Hecker GuthrieBrighton Residence by Melbourne-based interior design practice Hecker Guthrie channels Southern Italy’s artisanal qualities, tactile materiality and earthy palette while retaining the ornamentation of its Victorian heritage.The family home on the bay has been transformed through a design methodology that mediates between period features and new additions to impart a radiant warmth and an abiding sense of sanctuary. “We wanted to explore the concept of a contemporary Italian country home while still having a space that spoke of the heritage of the 1800’s Victorian home here in Melbourne,” Hecker Guthrie interior designer Caroline Hedley says. The resulting home features two disparate yet complementary volumes — the original at the front and a modern addition to the rear — unified by colour but respectfully differentiated by materiality.INTERIOR DESIGN Hecker GuthrieARCHITECTURE Cera StribleyBUILDER Lawler Property Services Co.PHOTOGRAPHYShannon McGrath

Editorial: Design Anthology | Where Embellishment Meets Austerity - Glencairn by Trower Falvo The name Glencairn conjures images of Scottish moors and a landscape of flint grey and sharp yet rolling edges. In this case, however, Glencairn is the name given to a heritage-listed bluestone estate in Coburg, an inner-city suburb of Melbourne. Elegantly blending past and present, the 19th-century villa is a stately residence with covert architectural innovation that stands on what was once an impressive landholding.‘This property used to extend so much further, and it’s quite an anomaly in Coburg,’ says Dayne Trower of Trower Falvo Architects, who worked on the five-year resurrection of Glencairn with co-director Simona Falvo.

Editorial: Est Living | Potts Point by Tamsin JohnsonPotts Point by Tamsin Johnson is a home that elevates the classical to the cultural through a curation of antipodean design influences.Like its vibrant surrounds, Potts Point is a home that harbours a coalescence of rooms and creative leanings. With its crisp white facade, slate roof tiles and established palms, the 19th-century Victorian terrace alludes to the charm of Chateau Marmont mellowed by its distinctly urban pied-à-terre simplicity. When designer Tamsin Johnson first went to see the site, the interventions required to bring this home once again into rhythm with contemporary living patterns quickly unfolded. “I wanted to reinstate the bones of what would have originally been there while not recreating the past,” she says of the “contemporary twist” that the home has embraced.
