Belle Magazine

Featured Project

We were excited to see one of our standout projects featured in this month's Belle Magazine. When the owners purchased their eastern-suburbs property in 2018, it consisted of two Victorian terraces and a mismatched studio at the rear, all divided by a central courtyard.

From the start, the couple envisioned a family home that would blend private and public spaces, with clear separation between the two. They turned to architect Pouné Parsanejad and interior designer Emily Ellis of Studio P to bring their vision to life, enlisting Adam Robinson Design to transform the courtyard into a key part of the design.

The design journey involved removing walls from the front section to create an expansive open-plan living space, as well as combining two smaller bedrooms into one large suite upstairs. At the rear of the property, behind a curved brick wall, a second living area was created, with three additional bedrooms above. The interiors are marked by a warm, moody natural palette that blends metals like bronze and pewter with charcoal and olive-green tones, creating a harmonious flow between the indoor and outdoor areas.

The classy, Mediterranean-inspired courtyard, designed by Adam Robinson Design, exudes a chic, continental vibe, with an olive tree at its heart, alongside a pool and spa. Thoughtful shading ensures cool, private spaces in this compact area, while agaves and aloes provide low-maintenance greenery.

The transformation of two distinct properties into one cohesive, beautiful home with a central oasis is a true design triumph.
