Grand Georgian

Although newly built, Grand Georgian emulates the Georgian period as a nod to the surrounding context and as a statement of permanence and longevity. Carla Barton, together with Roger Nahum and Andrew Spaile, ensures every element within the home has been meticulously crafted, creating a richness through a depth in layers, tactility and deep and light tones.

Alongside the combination of classical proportions with a generous scale, modernist influences merge with a Georgian style to ensure the home sat respectfully within the established streetscape. Completed this year, the double-storey home encompasses an inviting entry foyer, expansive living spaces, kitchen, integrated laundry, powder room, study and a generously sized double garage on the ground floor. On the upper level, three equally generous bedrooms reside, each with a bathroom and large storage capacity.

The ultimate challenge lay in infusing the design with elements that would transcend trends and instead embrace a more timeless approach – responding more to place than time. Amid the curated coming together of character-rich pieces and designed furniture, artwork and lighting, there exists a muted and minimal base as a foundation. The ability to accommodate the changes over time, and the need for a family home to be flexible and have an element of dynamism in the planning, ensures an openness throughout.

The space contains both treasures from the owner's collection and new elements. Focusing on a natural approach, timber veneers, stones, metals and specialised plaster applications are combined with crafted and handmade Murano glass. Throughout the home, and despite its size, there is an evidenced warmth that provides a feeling of safety and enclosure whilst also reinforcing a feeling of disconnection from urbanity.

Through an alchemy of fusing materials and textures within such a considered and enduring framework, Grand Georgian stands as a totem of understated permanence. Carla Barton, together with Roger Nahum and Andrew Spaile, ensures the comforts of a contemporary home are well ingrained amid a more traditional approach, firmly grounding the home in place for many years.
