Location inspires charming lakefront design

Izvor House by Axon Homes boasts an array of natural materials and a great sense of flow.

Axon Homes Owner and Interior Designer Kylie Petrou said the home, completed in February this year, could be described as a modernistic European villa with complementary mid-century elements, drawing inspiration from its location and Axon’s in-house architect’s love for the Italian masters of the early 1900s.

“Colour schemes were chosen to complement the surrounding environment,” she said.

“Consequentially, greens and dark blues are featured in this home with walnut timber and blue-grey basalt stone.

“We also used gold paint in the window reveals that effectively creates a reflective warm light in the house, and used grey stucco on feature walls, the fireplace and ceilings to provide an earthy and organic feel.

“Other paint effects and plaster colours have been applied to create patina.”
