A Glamorous Bachelor Pad in Australia, Small-Space Edition - Remodelista
An uninhabitable, century-old worker’s cottage has been reimagined as a drama-filled bachelor’s abode, full of edgy details and custom furniture and lighting. Photography by Armelle Habib via LifeSpaceJourney. Lamont designed the house for himself. An original fireplace lends a traditional note to the otherwise pared-down space. Above L and R: A meticulously arranged group of amber apothecary bottles form a decorative tableau. Vintage plow points mounted on the wall create a modernist collage. A view to the kitchen; all furniture, fixtures, and fittings are from LifeSpaceJourney. A yellow Vola faucet adds a dash of color to the black kitchen. Tucked behind the living area, the small bedroom is enlarged by mirrors. The arrangement is kept simple, with a suspended reading light and not much more. Life Space Journey’s Copper Lights provide bedside illumination. A row of vintage lockboxes serve as a wall mural. A minimalist bachelor bath with more amber bottles. A view to the small, fenced-in deck area off the rear. The steel fire pit is made by LifeSpaceJourney. A toolshed is cleverly concealed behind the deck walls. A side view of the house. Entry to the deck area is via sliding steel doors. This post is an update; the original ran on July 23, 2013, as part of our Australia by Design issue.
