Adelaide Residence
An exercise in the use of clean lines, a minimal colour palette and tight space planning. This busy family needed a low-fuss, high-function kitchen, with materials that would stand up to the test of time. The main focus of the galley configuration is the end wall, for which the client wanted an unorthodox treatment. The clean, minimal palette inspired us to bring nature into the space as an eye-catching juxtaposition. Images were taken of an ivy covered wall, converted into wallpaper and covered with clear, toughened glass for longevity. The layout of the space was designed to allow everything to be at one's fingertips and long bench tops provide ample prep space as well as a quick spot for kids' meals.

Brammy Kyprianou
An effortless collaboration between client, architect and designer, this project created a beautiful home within a small envelope. The core project driver: sustainability in both a 'green' and lifestyle sense. Large volume water storage tanks hidden under outdoor decking, grey water reticulation, energy efficient tap ware, sanitary fixtures and appliances, LED and compact fluorescent lighting, reconstituted and recycled timbers, natural oil finishes and low VOC paints, were all used to the highest degree of effectiveness. The small footprint is deceptive, as the spatial volume opens to an outdoor area, extending the internal living space beyond its glass facade. The master bedroom floats like a tree house within glass walls, yet is deceptively private, as are the other sleeping zones located within the existing heritage cottage. Beautiful and subtle, this extension is virtually undetectable from the street front, but unfolds as soon as you step inside.

Rohrsheim Extension
A comfortably contemporary, classic family extension suiting the client's casual and outdoor focused lifestyle. The design needed to sit well with the existing house, both in proportion and look. The existing rooms were renovated to reflect the clean and easy style of the client, with polished and sophisticated finishes, furniture and textures. Open planning of the internal areas, which connect seamlessly to an exterior floating deck, allows people to sit either together or independent of one another, while still sharing in the same space. A subtle yet rich palette of existing and new stone, recycled and reconstituted timbers, organic fabrics and leathers create an environment that is timeless and beautiful.

Polites Apartment
The client wanted the interior environment of their home, situated above the Adelaide skyline, to make the most of its city and hill views and to reflect their appreciation of international style and classic design objects. The bespoke joinery, in polished and matte lacquer finishes, sits beautifully with their collection of contemporary classic furniture pieces.

Stock-Snell
Working in collaboration with the client, Enoki created both the architectural and interior design of this residence. The brief called for a spacious yet modest dwelling, taking reference from the 60's architecture to compliment the client's furniture and objects collection. Polished concrete floors and exposed split face block blade walls compliment the neutral, clean design as well as the client's laid back nature.
