Designed for a high-profile Sydney chef, Rose Bay House by Fiona Lynch celebrates the luxury of living and the conviviality of entertaining. The kitchen holds the heart of the two-storey 1920’s house.
Spilling over four levels, the existing grand Victorian terrace presented a unique opportunity for Fiona Lynch to reflect the couple’s vibrant and electric taste for modern design.
Owners Jia-Yen and Thi Le wished to create an interior which reflected their Asian Australian cuisine by creating an interior that is relaxed & modern in feel.
Overlooking Melbourne’s shipping ports this elegant home designed by Fiona Lynch is full of strong, simple materials, and has been built for longevity.
Striking in its minimal textured material approach, soft grey rendered walls, terrazzo floors & open seam leather ottomans softly engage in a quiet way.
Fiona Lynch Studio were tasked with redefining a narrow space within an elegant Victorian terrace, defined by a column which sits adjacent to the kitchen.
Exclusive in its laneway location, the brief was to create a space that was intimate and reflected on the boutique nature of the small producers wine served.
Blending old and new, the house embraces a refined interior, with bold use of materials and bespoke joinery, while preserving the original architecture.
A conceptual approach was taken with anodised aluminium framework that wraps up the wall and across the ceiling down into a hanging rail for clothing display.
