EXTERIOR

A mix of ‘Jackson’ and ‘Cascade’ bricks from Austral Bricks – the first chosen for its smooth look, the second for its textured finish – have been laid in an interesting geometric pattern. The front door is cedar with a Brazilian walnut stain. DINING The showstopping pendant light is from Hollywood Interiors. Saarinen dining table and vintage Platner chairs by Knoll. ‘Vionnet Cross’ console, GlobeWest. Artwork by Nickolas Gurtler. KITCHEN Nancy loves to entertain at home. The kitchen was designed by Hayley Prendiville of Weststyle and built by The Maker Designer Kitchens. All the cupboards are Dulux White Polar. The 3m-long polished-concrete island bench was manufactured offsite by Concrete Studio in three pieces and assembled onsite, which allowed for the negative detail at the top of the end pillars. Resident ‘Tangerine’ stools, District. TV ROOM A Christmas garland and some spruce foliage enliven the secondary living space. The ‘King Cloud III’ reclining sofa by King Living is a tasteful take on media-room furniture. ‘Ido’ coffee table and ‘Zen’ floor lamps, Natuzzi Italia. Paper-circles garland and Tom Dixon ‘Bump Cone’ clear-glass vase, both Editeur. The wall sculpture was purchased at a Paris flea market.

ENTRY HALL DETAIL Presents can look gorgeous even when wrapped in inexpensive materials such as these newsagency papers and ribbon offcuts.
