Outdoor Living

Designer Steve Gliosca tells Trends editorial director Paul Taylor what was involved. Expansive outdoor living space with stonework, timber decks and fire pit. Outdoor living spaces and a connection to nature go hand in hand. However, whether the emphasis is on poolside chic, entertaining under the stars, or achieving a tropical paradise, each is likely to offer a space that’s low maintenance and a fun, relaxing place to be. It’s a time-honoured story on both sides of the Tasman – a 1950s home in a beautiful spot but with a design that closes out the views. More a new build than a renovation, this project by architectural designer Steve Gliosca, with soft landscaping by Monica Palmer of Tim Davies Landscaping, addresses such an issue. On a site facing a park with a river beyond, the original brick house had small windows and did not make the most of the outlook. “For the makeover, the owners asked for a tropical, spa-like ambience, with a large living-dining-kitchen and entertaining area to the front, and bedrooms set to the rear,” says Gliosca. “They wanted the main front room to open out to a outdoor entertaining space with a fire pit and pool area.” Other elements include a three-car garage at the rear and a porte-cochère at the side, paved in travertine, for a hotel-style welcome.
