A Familiar Heightening – Luxury Farmhouse by Linda Habak Design
Sitting among the tumbling landscape, Luxury Farmhouse is an authentic representation of its naming. Linda Habak Design draws from a rural inspiration to propose a home of familiar warmth and generosity.
In matching the magnitude of its landscape, Luxury Farmhouse is brought to life through a refined and considered lens. Celebrating the rural surrounds of the Central Tablelands, the simplified form sits comfortably in place – becoming synonymous with the surrounds through its natural materiality. Linda Habak Design focuses on a local approach, engaging nearby makers and craftspeople to support local businesses and reduce the environmental impact associated with imported products.
Whilst the home’s exterior is protective and robust, the interior elements embody a much warmer spirit. Large posts and beams form the core structure of the home and add a natural texture and depth to the palette. With the structure’s base comprised of timber, contrasting monochromatic surfaces and furnishings add moments of drama into the home with a refined simplicity.
Pivotal to the home’s design is the ability to socialise and connect to the natural aspects. A central hallway runs the length of the house, providing access to bedrooms and culminating in the kitchen, dining and living area – ensuring movement organically flows towards the open spaces of the residence. Large openings and plentiful glazing ensure the interior constantly feels connected to place, with views outward to the surrounds, while furniture groupings encourage social interaction.
