Nestled in a quiet pocket of leafy Kew East, Paul and Nada’s new home is a sophisticated expression of modern living. With its dramatic angular façade and refined interior detailing, this custom-designed residence by Latitude 37 is anything but ordinary.
From the moment you arrive, the home’s bold sculptural presence makes an impression. The sharp geometry of the exterior is softened by natural materials and landscaping, hinting at the balance of drama and intimacy that awaits inside.
As recent empty nesters, Paul and Nada were ready to leave behind their large family home. They didn’t want to downsize in spirit, instead they wanted a space that celebrated their love of contemporary design and embraced their evolving lifestyle.
“We didn’t just want a cookie cutter home. We wanted something unique that met our needs, especially moving forward with life.”
Nada, Kew East
The heart of the home is a generous open plan living space, where the kitchen, dining and lounge areas flow effortlessly into an outdoor entertaining zone. Featuring an outdoor fireplace and plunge pool, it’s a space that invites connection year-round.
Inside, polished concrete floors, a monochrome palette, and black steel accents bring a sense of elegance and edge. Colourful furnishings and personal décor add vibrancy and warmth.
A striking design feature is the void that stretches the length of the home, creating a remarkable sense of space and inviting natural light to flood in. This thoughtful choice also subtly links all the living zones, allowing for seamless interaction across the home.
“My favourite space in the home has to be my kitchen/family room. It is the heart and soul of my home. I have a very large family, with lots of gorgeous grandkids and when they fill the space, it warms my heart.”
Nada, Kew East
In the kitchen, integrated appliances are paired with bespoke joinery to achieve both function and finesse. The uncluttered layout enhances the minimalist aesthetic, while generous proportions ensure there’s room for celebration.
“When I first stepped into my home, I felt like I had come home. I am so incredibly proud of what we have achieved with our home design and build.” says Nada
Paul and Nada’s story is a testament to what’s possible when design meets purpose. Their brief was met with a deeply collaborative process, where every decision reflected their lifestyle, values and aspirations. The result? A custom home that feels authentically theirs.
