The project

A two-level waterfront home named after the cascade of amber glass that falls through its double-height hall, catching the marina sun all day.

Palette

Around the amber chandelier the palette is warm and tactile: smoked oak joinery, honed stone, textured plaster and bronze-tinted glass. Folding glass doors open the living room onto a planted terrace with the yachts just beyond.

Joinery does the heavy lifting: a lit wine store built into the stair, full-height kitchen walls that hide every appliance, a fitted study and a walk-in wardrobe.

A double-height hall

A cascading amber glass chandelier falls through two storeys beside a plaster wall and bronze glass stair.

Joinery that works hard

A lit oak wine store under the stair, full-height kitchen walls, a fitted study and a walk-in wardrobe.

Living on the water

Folding glass doors and full-height bedroom glazing open the home to its terrace and the marina.

01 · Living

Open to the terrace, open to the marina

A smoked oak media wall faces a deep sectional, with a grand piano by the glass and amber petals drifting across the wall above the dining table.

02 · Kitchen

Smoked oak and honed stone

A full wall of oak hides the appliances, and a stone waterfall island seats four under a slim linear pendant.

03 · Master suite

Waking up on the water

A curved, cove-lit ceiling over a low bed, with full-height glass framing the yachts and towers.
