Border Street is an expensive home and eloquent response to the pristine Byron Bay environment where it resides.
“The idea was to try and create a sense of wonder; you don’t really know what’s going on behind that screen,” notes John.
Walking through the front gate, there is a substantial walk to the front door, allowing one to really experience the landscape the home is set in, rather than “just simply walking through a front door,” says John.
One then enters the main living and dining areas, the pavilions open up to the dunes and the rainforest.
Responding to the natural environment where the house resides, robust and sustainable materials favored externally and throughout the interior design.
Often hallmarks of an expensive home; porcelain, timber and stone dominate the material palette, complemented by minimal decor.
Border Street responds to the emerging sensibilities of the locale.
It is not just another expensive home – it does not overpower the landscape but exists peacefully alongside it.
