This sleek Sutherland home blends the best of industrialism and vintage charm to wonderful effect. The Caringbah Project – brought to life by Bezzina Projects – is proof that laundry and separate bathroom spaces can follow the same motif and end up entirely distinct yet seamless in their aesthetic.

With its clever juxtaposition of tradition and modernity, the Caringbah home is bold in its combination of cool-toned hues, organic textures, and abundance of natural light. The laundry is particularly poignant, with a generous farmhouse sink, pearly floor to ceiling tiles, and Faucet Strommen Pegasi tapware in antique brass that will acquire a unique patina as it ages. 

The downstairs bathroom is a world of its own. Moody and atmospheric, it features luxe herringbone marble and charcoal walls with concrete features that accentuate the industrial look and feel of the space.

Whereas the architectural features of the master ensuite – flooded with natural light with the help of a well-placed skylight – are elevated with an entirely contrastive look. Here, it’s all blonde timber detailing, flower stone mosaic tiles that add a subtle feminine touch, and again that timeless antique brass tapware which helps tie it into the overall theme of the house.

The upstairs bathroom space deserves recognition for its colour palette – rich shades of dark blue. Navy blue cabinetry makes a more classic impression, and is complemented perfectly with navy detailing, polished nickel tapware and a silkstone bath both by Faucet Strommen – which elegantly soften out the colour scheme.
