Armadale Edwardian

First-time builder, Ivy Huang’s renovation has transformed this weatherboard Edwardian into one of Melbourne’s most sought after properties. “I wanted to create a beautiful, functional family home that would also feel like we were on holidays all the time!”. Ivy combined her engineering background with professional project manager skills along with help from the talented team at BuildHer Collective to bring to life this “sanctuary” in the heart of Armadale.

Edwardian Drama

The home celebrates many existing heritage features, while seamlessly incorporating modern luxuries for a true dream home. The timeless feel of DIY Blinds’ products used for this home help continue this respectful modernization with PolyLux Shutters in the bedroom while the use of sheers in the bathroom create drama and highlight the statement bathtub.

This beautiful bathroom complements the period elements of the home with subtle statements in the form of a modern colour palette and fixings. DIY Blinds’ Australian Made PolyLux shutters provide functional light and privacy control as well as yet another design element in this already elegant space.

Privacy never looked so good! DIY Blinds’ Aurora linen curtains provide functional privacy with a touch of luxe from the natural linen texture. The pale linen paired with the Black Vanda curtain rod makes for a memorable design statement. Simple juxtapositions like this work to heighten design elements and also serve to highlight additional dark accent colours within the space.

A match made in heaven. These heritage windows look incredible and provide amazing curb appeal. Pair these ornate windows with Australian Made PolyLux Shutters and your external appeal matches the incredible interior of this bedroom.

Bathroom Sheer

Pushing the boundaries of furnishings for a bathroom, Ivy made a bold statement in this statement bathroom with Morton Blanc sheer curtains. Including a black Vanda rod with the sheer curtains allows the black accents of the bath, chandelier and fixings to be accentuated by the curtain rod.
