Emma Templeton, founder of Templeton Architecture, was able to illuminate the client’s vision – a vivid picture from the outset. “After many, many years in the original home, their primary desire was for a space that felt overwhelmingly calm and functional. It had to be easy for a family with two teen boys to thrive in their different routines,” she says. What unfurled was a very refined aesthetic that allowed for flexibility and independence, without compromising on emotional or physical comfort.The adults’ wing, comprising the primary bedroom, ensuite and study, was intentionally zoned away from the children’s bedrooms to cultivate a greater sense of peace and privacy. The two very intentional living areas also accommodate alternate schedules and interests within the family unit. Balance became the unwavering backbone of this timeliness transformation.
