You gotta love Melbourne style – the space, the conviction of design  and the absolute certainty that the interior will look good, perhaps even better, on gloomy days.

37 Elizabeth St, Brighton, VIC is one such home. The balance of the ‘boxes’ , with their viewing screens observing the pristine tennis court and pool – well, it’s playful. This house doesn’t take itself seriously, which adds to the welcoming upbeat style.

And it’s that combo of playful and precision geometry that I find really exciting – oh yeah, and the interiors are similarly upbeat. Very calm, relaxed, stylish.

The home is with the good folk at  Marshall White in Brighton.
