This project for a retired couple downsizing from a large family home focused on minimal intervention and maximum impact. Inspired by the couple’s artwork and furniture, the design reshaped the Spanish Mission House to suit their lifestyle. Improvements included enhancing natural light in living spaces, creating a welcoming entrance, and updating the kitchen. Colour theory and collaboration with the clients produced calming greens, bold blushes, and moody corks. The eclectic interior celebrates the home’s unique features with a blend of modern convenience and traditional elements. Spanish Mission House by Melbourne and Brisbane-based Lande Architects.
