the ever-changing landscape outside. The dining area is a case in


point: velvet-upholstered dining chairs, teamed with hand-carved


timber pendant lights, create a sense of drama, against a backdrop


of deliberately neutral finishes – light oak and driftwood-toned timbers,


marble, sisal and crisp white walls. “The house has sweeping views


over a nearby valley,” says Lily. “We wanted to capture that feeling


inside by creating interior spaces that flow gracefully from one to


another and by using the same colour palette.”


The result is a very comfortable and practical family home, one

that uses traditional architectural forms in contemporary ways,


responding to 21 st-century preferences for indoor-outdoor living,


says Walter. And thanks to Lily’s deft touch on the interior, it is a


wonderfully inviting and calming place to spend time in, with


unexpected elements that excite the senses. A home the family


delights in every day. >
