Bellevue Hill House | Powder Room

A quiet moment of calm within a busy family home.

Thoughtful planning of the ground floor allowed us to introduce a new powder room, conveniently positioned just off the main living and kitchen areas.

The finishes were carefully selected to feel elegant while standing up to everyday family life. Limestone flooring, a natural stone basin and handmade tiles bring warmth.

Our favourite detail? The decorative wall lights. A small but considered addition that elevates the room and adds a beautiful layer of character.

It’s these thoughtful details that help make a home feel truly bespoke.

JDA Collective Offices | Interior Detail

t’s often the smaller details that make a space feel like home.

With an integrated design and build approach, we were able to consider everything from the overall planning through to details like the kitchen shelving and display areas. Designed to feel relaxed and welcoming, the generous kitchen and breakout space sits at the heart of the office, giving the JDA team a place to gather, entertain and host menu demonstrations and tastings for their hotel venues.

Industrial character, warm interiors and a workplace designed around people.

Edgecliff Apartment | Walk Through

We’re nearly ready to get started on site, with our pre-build walk-through happening shortly.

With views across Double Bay to the harbour, this project is about unlocking the apartment’s full potential while respecting its Art Deco character.

The existing floor plan is being reworked to create a more liveable, intuitive home, with the kitchen moving to a more central position and the bathrooms being refreshed.

The new interiors will bring together warm wool carpet, beautiful lighting, bronze and brass details, onyx stone and bespoke joinery — including a full-length dark timber shelving unit in the living room, designed to feel more like a piece of furniture than storage.

A thoughtful update, with plenty of character. 🤎

Lammermuir House | Progress Report

Where did all the old bricks go?

In the kitchen and master ensuite, the original chimney's will be carefully bricked up using some of the salvaged bricks from the former street-front shop.

New flooring is being built over the old kitchen, the lift shaft is taking shape, and the high ceilings are allowing our design team to introduce taller door frames and beautiful proportions.

What you don’t see are the huge structural beams supporting the house as walls and floors are carefully reworked. It’s a delicate balance of old and new, with plenty of skilled work happening behind the scenes.

Lammermuir House | Progress Report
There’s something pretty special about watching the structure of an old house emerge as the work progresses. At Lammermuir House, we’re uncovering layers of its history, including the incredible sandstone foundations, originally laid by hand.

Up on the living floors, huge structural beams are being installed to support the home, while floors are carefully being rebuilt.

It’s exciting to see the structure of the new home taking shape, while keeping its history front and centre.

We’re also giving the salvaged bricks from the old shopfront a second life across other Modify Homes projects — another small way our team is working to reduce waste and reuse what we can. ♻️

Gordon Terrace | Interiors

It’s all in the details. 🤍

Dusty pinks, eucalypt greens, olive tones, natural stone, brass accents and warm timbers are coming together to create a home that feels layered, welcoming and full of character.

Our clients are making the move from a contemporary home to this beautiful Victorian terrace, embracing its traditional charm while creating spaces designed for modern family life.

From finishes and fixtures through to the smallest details, our design team carefully curates every element and presents it as one considered scheme. It’s all part of our bespoke, integrated design and build process — making the journey from ideas to construction that little bit easier.

Ocean Avenue | It’s all in the details🤍

Our design team works closely with the build team throughout every project, researching, refining and resolving each element to ensure the final result feels considered from every angle.

At our Double Bay renovation, you can see this in the elegant joinery selections, speciality wall finishes and subtle touches, such as the coloured shelving inside the wardrobes. Just as important is the preparation work that happens behind the scenes, creating the perfect foundation for the finished spaces.

There’s plenty more detailing to come over the next few weeks — the icing on the cake!

Regent Terrace | Before We Begin

A final walk-through with our client, Creative Director and Site Foreman before demolition gets underway at this beautiful early Victorian terrace in Paddington.

With the house empty, years of renovations are visible, revealing layers of its history and plenty of original character. It’s a great opportunity for our design and build team to understand what’s there before we start reshaping it for contemporary living.

We’re particularly looking forward to transforming the large garage-top verandah into a rooftop garden – creating an inner-city oasis while helping to reduce the impact of the afternoon westerly sun and improve the home’s thermal performance. ♻️

Follow along as the transformation begins. ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️

Hastings House | Dining Room

Looking back at one of our favourite spaces at Hastings House in Bondi. Designed to create a seamless connection between indoors and out, this renovation transformed the way the home is lived in and enjoyed every day.

The dining space is anchored by a striking vertical window, drawing natural light deep into the interior, while the warm material palette of red cedar timber brings texture and richness throughout.

A space designed for gathering — we hope our clients have shared many memorable dinner parties around this table over the years.
