Northcote Residence is a soulful reimagining of a classic mid-century home, where a series of dated wet-room spaces were transformed into calming, tactile sanctuaries. Guided by a desire to honour the home’s original character while introducing a contemporary edge, the design brings warmth, depth, and a quiet sense of luxury through a layered palette of natural stone, handcrafted finishes, and timeless textures.

Each space was approached with care and consideration — from the natural Tundra limestone to rich timbers and soft concrete tones, every element was chosen to feel lasting and lived-in. The result is a deeply personal expression of modern-day living: one that invites calm, elevates the everyday, and reflects the rhythm of the people who call it home.
