Ivanhoe East Residence

In Ivanhoe, architectural ambition is delivered with monochrome restraint. A sculptural composition of textured render and crisp cubic forms — wrapped in black-framed glazing and timber batten screening — gives the home a bold, contemporary street presence. Beyond a dramatic batten entry, the interiors balance light and shadow: book-matched Calacatta-veined marble anchors a striking kitchen and ensuite, while a double-height void and warm timber detailing soften the strong palette. Outdoors, a resort-style pool and a custom half-court extend the living spaces into a private, leafy setting. Confident, considered and unmistakably architectural.
