A Family Home in Sydney

i am torn when it comes to modern/minimal design...often times i associate it with cold and void. this queens park home definitely could be considered modern, but also puts forth just the right amount of warmth. perhaps this is due to the fact that the original structure dates back to the early 20th century? old bones with modern finishes...sounds about right. the design firm of alexander and co transformed this 2-storey federal into the perfect family space. a space that encompasses uncluttered, minimal design while also maintaining a feeling of comfort and warmth.

i am immediately drawn to the wood floors and cabinetry. i love the way the lush green becomes the backdrop due to the perfectly placed, huge windows. bring the outside in! then my eyes go to the black accessories...especially, the strong black lamp in the dining room. and then there is always the art!
