Light timbers, tactile stones, natural linens, wool and sisal ground the palette, supported by subtle gestures of marble that nod to the ever-shifting sea. This layered approach keeps the interiors bright and breezy in summer yet warm and enveloping when Bondi’s coastal winds roll in. The decor brings together custom furniture by Lawless & Meyerson, vintage pieces and designs from local and international makers. Limewashed oak flooring in a classic herringbone pattern runs through the living spaces and bedrooms, while limestone laid in the same arrangement elevates the bathrooms. Sisal and heavy wool rugs add texture underfoot, and walls are finished in soft paint tones. Joinery is crafted from Elton Group Eveneer with hardware from Spark & Burnish. In the kitchen, the island’s antique-finish stone introduces a tactile patina designed to age gracefully over time.
Scandinavian sensibilities guided the interior approach – light palettes to lift mood and wellbeing, balanced by a Nordic warmth that shapes the home’s atmosphere. Despite its coastal setting, Bondi can become cool and windswept; therefore, tactile materials and considered lighting ensure the apartment feels intimate and nurturing throughout all the seasons.
