By embracing the iconic volumes of this nineteen eighties home and celebrating its geometric forms, Long Contracting together with Templeton architects have reformed and extended the spaces to create a relaxed and elegant family home. The interior architecture is minimalist yet warm with consideration given to every detail and selection. The external spaces have been reimagined as external rooms, each designed for a specific purpose. The result is a harmonious home, beautifully appointed and practical to live in.
