Inside the home, Moloney Architects applied a uniform birch-faced plywood finish throughout to create a sense of warmth and to reinforces the monolithic form of the interior’s angled ceilings.

The main social area has the living room at one end and it’s focused on the black fireplace, while a purpose-built, low-set bench seat that runs around the room, creating a space for guests and inhabitants to have casual, comfortable sit-downs.

Separating the living room and the kitchen is a dining area furnished with a matte black, round dining table and chairs. Next the dining area is a tall window with a bench, that creates a space for someone to gaze at the surrounding nature.

The kitchen has been designed as a communal zone with plenty of space. A large black island with seating matches the black shelving, backsplash and countertop, creating a bold and contemporary look.

A pop of color has been added to this bedroom by the use of light blue, floor to ceiling cabinets. Another vertical window adds plenty of natural light to the room.

In the bathroom, large black tiles have been used on the walls and floor and they contrast the wood frames and white accents like the freestanding bathtub and sink.
