UNXPECTED PLEASURES
20A family weekender in Port Willunga was designed to be a complete contrast to the owners’ Adelaide home and an expression of its seaside setting. In the kitchen, marine rope has been strung across the ceiling in a chevron pattern to mirror timber floorboards below. The rangehood, usually an unsung performer, is the unexpected hero of this space. Custom-made in Corten steel, it’s juxtaposed against solid American oak joinery and a sea-green tiled splashback, and will develop a rust-like patina over time.
