Brighton House

Built around a palette of greys and monochromes, the renovation of this modern residence involved adding a second storey and redecorating to offer several 'retreat' spaces.

White interior walls maintain the minimalist feel, while large concrete blocks on the exteriors ensure cohesion between old and new areas.

Furniture with accents of black, neutral rugs that add texture and interest, and considered punches of colour in paintings and soft furnishings show how layering is key to creating a warm, livable space even in a minimalist setting.
