The Melbourne Road Project aims to redefine modern living spaces by seamlessly blending contemporary aesthetics with timeless appeal. We’re thrilled to be part of this project spearheaded by Rohan Riley Interior Design (RR-ID), a boutique design practice on the Mornington Peninsula for this home’s living room and bedroom. 

In this blog post, we chat with their team on creating this beach sanctuary.

RJ: What kind of feeling was central in creating these spaces?

RR-ID: For a compact site and floor plan the intent was to create a robust beach house that had through flowing spaces that connect with its coastal surroundings.

RJ: There’s a great usage of texture across the home, how did you balance the variety of materials while keeping the aesthetic consistent?

RR-ID: By making sure our selection of finishes and materials complimented and connected with the coastal environment.

RJ: What is your favourite element of the home?

RR-ID: The front door entry which has views through the house to the old oak tree and the main living space which encourages greater connection for entertaining.
