This innovative home, equally colourful, contemporary and minimalistic all at the same time, is definitely one for design lovers. Walking into the home is an experience in itself, as you are immediately struck by the size of the space with its high ceilings and floating mezzanine. We loved the collection of enormous tropical plants, which add to the unique feel of the lounge area. While the bedroom only has a few items of furniture, it’s incredibly characterful and peaceful, with its wooden interior, exposed beams and large frosted window.
