A unique project with pared back, industrial interiors and finishes that look like they belong on a building site make a statement in this Canberra AirBNB.

​Builders D3 Projects approached Bella Vie Interiors to design and document the industrial style kitchens, bathrooms and bedroom storage for this very unique property in Canberra.  ​The client's brief was to create a pared back, industrial interior with a finishes that looked raw and unfinished.
 
The client was very hands on with the selection of fixtures and fittings and had a clear vision from the outset.  Bella Vie Interiors designed custom joinery from black ply and timber with simple drilled holes to the fronts instead of handles.  The raw timber look tile makes a dramatic statement in the wet areas.  Brace board, corrugated iron and concrete are used extensively throughout to create the desired aged, industrial aesthetic.
 
The builders worked very closely with the client to ensure every detail met their vision to create a unique interior to suit their needs.

A minimalist interior designed by Bella Vie Interiors, complements the crisp, clean exterior of this new Passive house in Googong.

Situated in the self-contained township of Googong, this Passive House makes a bold statement with its monochromatic colour scheme and a skillion roof soaring high into the sky.  Its glazed facade designed to capture the winter sun, warming highly polished concrete floors and basking the living areas with sunlight during the cooler months.

Triple glazed windows with zipscreen external shade blinds, allow seamless integration between indoors and outdoors, providing privacy, blocking UV rays and keeping insects out.

Bella Vie Interiors created a minimalist interior scheme to suit the client's brief for a home with clean lines and a neutral colour palette.

A black linear custom pendant hangs over a simple concrete kitchen island.  Dark, minimalist bathrooms create a dramatic contrast to the crisp white walls throughout the living areas and bedrooms.

With the building works completed, the client can now move into a new home, enjoying the benefits of living in a Passive House as Winter approaches.

The owners moved into this partially renovated 60’s house in 2014 and quickly set about having plans drawn up to add a master suite to the home's existing three-bedrooms.  With a builder engaged and facing the daunting prospect of making the finishes selections, they sought professional guidance and called in Interior Designers, Bella Vie Interiors.
