The modern concrete house, constructed from slabs poured on site, is surrounded by lush native trees. The extra wide loungers, overlooking the pool, were made by local tradesmen. The garden decking, made from balau wood, known to be very hardwearing, is perfect for summer alfresco dining.

Subtle touches of colour are added to the guest bedroom to warm up the concrete walls. Cosy bedlinen brings warmth to the scheme. With all bleached-out driftwood colours, the master bedroom is tranquil yet chic. The bed is made from wooden pallets, with cosy throws softening the scheme and adding a touch of luxury.
