Hi guys, it's Tari here from ABI Interiors.
And today, I'm outside Palmera,
which is the latest project by Urbane Build and Big House Little House.
Now you might remember that we toured another property called Project Keira by the same team.
Well, this project is a complete contrast. It's Palm Springs inspired.
It's warm. It's fresh. Let's check it out.
Now, this arched timber front door acts as a central focal point for this striking exterior.
It definitely feels grand.
Come on in.
So, as you step through the front door, you're straight into the kitchen and living area.
And they've stepped the ceilings up in this space to 4.5 meters, which just creates such a wonderful sense of space.
And this island benchtop has got to be the hero feature of the room.
It's a Perla Venata stone benchtop, which almost has a green tinge to it.
It's a wonderful point of difference.
And then these curved island bench legs that come in.
Super different, very unique.
And how awesome is this?
So functional. A seamless, hidden breakfast station.
So you can hide away your coffee machine, your appliances.
You don't have to look at the mess.
So, stepping into the dining and living, and that ceiling steps back down again, which
I don't mind because it actually makes the space feel a bit cosy.
And then these travertine tiles, which remain consistent throughout most of the home,
actually amplify that cosiness because they ground the space in a sort of rustic warmth.
Here's another grand timber arch door like we saw at the front, and it enters into the kids' wing.
So, a TV room or a little retreat to my left.
Main bathroom and the powder room just to my right.
There's a few bedrooms down here, all the kids' rooms. And then finally, the laundry.
Now, if you're going to experiment with colour, the laundry is a great place to do it.
And haven't they done a great job in here? These handmade teal-coloured tiles
make such an impact against that Perla Venata. It's a match made in heaven, really.
And it looks great with that brushed nickel.
So, back up the front end of the house, and here's a study.
And in through here is the master.
And stepping into the master, and you've got this soft floor to ceiling sheers on both sides,
which allows for both the morning and sunset light to filter all the way through.
And then here's the walk-in robe. So, a his-and-hers on either side,
and through to the ensuite.
Now what an eye-catching layout. This curved mirror mimics the doorway on entrance,
and then they've added a backplate to the tapware, which creates such a seamless look.
And the backplate itself also mimics the curve.
It's just a very thoughtfully designed space.
The big entertaining area out here.
Here's those Palm Springs inspired gardens again,
and this is that travertine tiling coming back but in a crazy paved format.
What a beautiful alfresco area to top off a beautiful home.
Thanks for coming on another tour with ABI Interiors.
We'll catch you next time.
