Architects, Studio Johnston used colour, textural materials and softly curved corners to turn the interior from cold to bold, while retaining its strong architectural identity.

Two adjustments to the floorplan significantly improved the upstairs, to unite the harbour-facing kitchen back to the generous living / dining space at the rear, a section of the void was infilled, and covered by the lightweight micro-cement floor throughout that mimics polished concrete. To amplify the view, new floor-to-ceiling Kazimir windows replaced the original waterfront windows and curved bulkheads were created to soften the lines and accentuate the ceiling height which peaks at 8 metres above the stairwell.
