This renovation project reimagines a 1960s Darling Point apartment into a home for a downsizer, emphasizing a balance of simplicity and richness. The design by Studio ZAWA incorporates panoramic Sydney Harbor views while creating intimate spaces through the use of mirrors and joinery. Inspired by Claude Monet, materials like micro-cement and Tadelakt plaster enhance tactile experiences. Strategic light control, use of Tasmanian oak, and a focus on serene aesthetics culminate in a space that reflects both the large views and personal curation of artwork.
The renovation transforms a dated 1960s floor plan into a tactile and deeply personal home that balances simplicity with richness.
Walls, floors, and ceilings are wrapped in hand-applied micro-cement, creating seamless surfaces that are soft in texture and tone.
Large-scale views are honoured, while quieter vignettes are carved out, allowing the occupant to enjoy both the expanse and the intimacy of her surroundings.
A palette of matte materials and white sheers softens the light, while mirrors help draw it deep into the plan.
