Design Ethos | 5021 St Andrews Terrace, Sanctuary Cove
by Dee by Design Pty Ltd
This home was a joy to design crafted not just with aesthetic intention, but with deep personal insight. Having worked with these beautiful owners on two previous homes, I had the privilege of truly understanding how they live, what they value, and how they wanted this third space to feel anchored to Sanctuary Cove yet elevated with quiet sophistication.
At its heart, this apartment is a luxe interpretation of Hamptons style, reimagined with a refined coastal palette and a lightness that invites connection and calm. Every element was considered with purpose, ensuring form always followed function, and beauty never compromised comfort.
One of my favourite transformations lies in the master suite. Rather than letting an elongated, imbalanced space dominate, we reimagined the floor plan borrowing from the oversized bedroom to create a bespoke dressing room that offers both elegance and generous storage. This wasn't just about cabinetry, it was about restoring energetic flow, bringing harmony and symmetry back to a space intended for rest and restoration.
As with all my work, this project was approached with heart, intention and an intuitive sense of how space should feel, not just look. The result is a home that speaks softly, yet confidently, of timeless design and intelligent living.
