KITESURFER ABODE, Dolphin Beach

This Dolphin Beach Cabana for a UK based Kite surfer and his partner is bold and bright, a true reflection of their personalities. The interiors are inspired by both Africa and the ocean, with muted blues and warm sandy tones taking center stage. Two guest bedrooms are drenched in these colours while the main bedroom is an escape into a mystical kelp forest. The living areas are defined through a rich, layered mix of luxurious textures and more muted warm tones, with an effortless flow to the outdoors.

Cosy Family Home Renovation

A typical 70s style house with a previously odd and problematic internal layout has been transformed into a modern open plan yet cosy family home. Unassuming exterior but wait until you step inside… My best before and after story for 2022!

Thank you Allsure Plumbing for making our vision a reality and SQM Tiles & Flooring for our beautiful new floors. Daniels Interiors did a marvelous job on the window treatment too!
