The brief

The owners wanted a home and not a showroom. We kept the mezzanine open, gave the kitchen one long island, and laid herringbone limestone on both levels so the floor ties them together.

The mezzanine rail is a 12 mm bar of blackened steel, thin enough that the two levels can see each other without glass. Oak at the kitchen end warms a room that would otherwise feel like a gallery.

The move that made it

One gold-wire pendant, dropped nine metres to hang over the dining table.
