Located on a heritage-lined street in Melbourne’s Williamstown, a young family were seeking a contemporary home with ample room to grow. Benni Trajcevski of Achieve Design Group answered their call, creating the epitome of modern living concealed behind a modest façade. To achieve the long wish list including large indoor and outdoor gathering spaces to entertain family and friends, separate adult and children living and sleeping zones, and a pool suitable for year-round use, Benni has maximised every inch of the block. Seamless transitional spaces link inside with out. This flow between the indoors and outdoors is a key feature of the home, achieved through generous open floor planning and glazing. For example, large hidden sliding doors allow the pool to be closed-off for use in winter; acrylic glass panels link the pool with the sunken lounge, which includes a fire pit for year-round comfort. The inclusion of a courtyard and voids throughout create separate useable zones while maintaining the feeling of spaciousness. Orientated to the north and surrounded with floor to ceiling windows to optimise natural light, the courtyard divides the formal lounge area with the informal living area, while the first floor is divided into four separate wings for privacy and functionality. The interiors are detailed with quality materials and finishes to achieve a sleek and sophisticated aesthetic. Contrasting materials in muted tones, including tiles, steel and lightweight timbers are featured throughout. Corian and a moss green wall are unexpected features.

We took down several walls to achieve this large space that has two islands and a soft seating area with floor to ceiling windows. There is a prep area, a serving area, a coffee bar, wet bar and an island with seating for 6. The ultimate family space.

‘Tis a gift to be simple. ‘Tis another thing to turn functional furniture into a form of high art. Yet the Shakers achieved it, and we’ve reproduced it. Where form follows function, and compliments follow your purchase. Every time.

Kitchen after - We really wanted the color palette to be neutral but interesting. By using variations of earth tones and different materials were were able to achieve just that and accentuate the lovely outdoor space as our inspiration.

This large space did not function well for this family of 6. The cabinetry they had did not go to the ceiling and offered very poor storage options. The island that existed was tiny in comparrison to the space. By taking the cabinets to the ceiling, enlarging the island and adding large pantry's we were able to achieve the storage needed. Then the fun began, all of the decorative details that make this space so stunning. Beautiful tile for the backsplash and a custom metal hood. Lighting and hardware to complement the hood. Then, the vintage runner and natural wood elements to make the space feel more homey.

This project was a challenge to integrate the existing grade and still achieve the customer's goals which were: a patio area for entertaining, space along the pool, and room for a fire pit. We were able to achieve all these goals in our design and use the grading challenges to enhance the landscape by adding boulder walls and a beautiful pool waterfall.
