Interiors The upstairs living space has been transformed into a light , transparent , pavilion-like structure flooded with natural light and fresh air , orientated to connect with the garden at the back of the house and allowing views of the sea to flow through the interiors . Perforated sliding metal screens on the façade shelter the interiors from direct sunlight when necessary , scattering dappled patterns of light and shadow across the interior .
A winding ‘ orange peel ’ staircase mediates the connection between the living and bedroom wings while creating a sculptural architectural element at the entrance that incorporates a custom designed light pendant which floats at different levels . A restrained and consistent palette of natural materials has been applied throughout the interiors , creating a tactile but neutral backdrop to enhance the colour pop of the views of the landscape .
