This whole house renovation by Rowlands Associates pays careful attention to how each design element affects how the space feels to our human nature. It is a design that works well because this is a home that simply feels great to live in.

Bennington Heights is a contemporary space that has undergone a full transformation. Working with great clients that had a keen eye for furniture and interior design, this project involved the complete renovation of a long and narrow home that had an amazing swimming pool and back garden but lacked a connection to the interior spaces. Rowlands Associates moved the kitchen and dining areas to the back of the house and introduced and large format window system with screens that allowed the indoors and outdoors to connect. A sofa and workspace add to the functionality of this well-used space that brings a busy family together.

The overall design theme is contemporary, with classic modern furnishings that focus on comfort as well as visual appeal. The connection to the outdoors has been translated into the design scheme, with the open spaces on the lower floor remaining light, bright and vibrant. Each space embraces the natural light that the location offers and is elevated by the tones and textures that are taken from nature. It is a playful design scheme that is filled with intrigue whilst remaining an ordered, relaxing and calm space. It is a place of comfort and a place to gather in a turbulent world. A true family home for a busy group of movers and shakers!
