Wolseley Residence in Melbourne’s Brighton by Mckimm.

The Wolesley Residence, designed and built by Mckimm, is a unique property imagined to cater to the needs of a young family of five. The home welcomes an energetic social life with well considered areas to entertain within a clever use of introspective architecture. The North /West orientation takes advantage of the best aspects of the block providing beautiful views from all rooms to the garden and the pool. Alfresco area located next to the kitchen provides a practical amenity when entertaining, with a built in bluestone BBQ and outdoor dining.

Crisp lines are integral to the look of the building, with concrete featuring as a dominant material. Walls are ceilings are clad in American oak, providing a sense of warmth against the steel, concrete and glass. Precise, unadorned lines are juxtaposed against an eye-catching mural by Melbourne artist Lucas Grogan.
