The Brighton Escape Melbourne

Located in the bayside suburb Brighton Melbourne Australia this family home designed by G.A.B.B.E is play on Expansiveness. Serenity. Terra-texture.  A contemporary design with resounding vibrations the project aim was to sooth the urban family, like a seashell carrying the sound of the ocean, or a mirror reflecting sunlight, this space was specifically fashioned to capture and exude the warmth of the environment which surrounds it.

The space was treated from its beginning, with the same respect for design as a museum. Carving of ceiling, walls and floor not only creates sculptural partitions throughout the residence, but also provides channels to flow through and delineates ample space in which to dwell together. Cleverly thought out to provide a flexible family home each area has been intentionally designed to accommodate and honour their everyday movements, emotions and cycles. The space provides ample opportunity for personalisation to the clients’ aesthetics and lifestyle through decorative items and furnishings. The result is a harmonious sanctuary that stands as a finished work of art on its own, and is yet constantly evolving with its inhabitants.
