Exploring Elonera House: A Harmonious Blend of History and Modern Design by Studio Doherty
Stepping into the Elonera House, designed by the renowned Studio Doherty, you are immediately struck by the seamless blend of old-world charm and modern sophistication. This beautifully restored home perfectly balances historical elements with forward-thinking design, creating a space that invites connection and community. As we wander through the home, we imagine effortlessly incorporating elements of Black Salt Co. to enhance the already stunning interiors.
Studio Doherty approached the renovation with a clear vision: to honor the original architecture while introducing modern touches that bring warmth and intimacy to the home. “We deliberately used lots of light timber in the home for the floors, ceiling, and joinery to create a relaxed, warm feeling,” says Doherty. This use of natural materials, paired with a subdued palette of earthy yellows and pale blues, creates a calming atmosphere that draws the eye towards the expansive gardens outside.
Incorporating Black Salt Co. Walking through the space, it’s easy to envision how Black Salt Co. pieces could complement the serene design of Elonera House. A Rico Chair in the sunroom, with its intricate handwoven details, would blend beautifully with the light timber tones, adding an additional layer of texture to the space. The subtle coastal vibe of the Panati Hallway Table would provide the perfect focal point in the home’s entryway, while seamlessly tying into the relaxed, inviting feel that Studio Doherty has achieved.
A Home for Gathering One of the standout qualities of Elonera House is its inherent sense of familiarity and warmth, encouraging friends and family to drop by for spontaneous gatherings. The thoughtful mix of heritage and contemporary design elements fosters a space where connection thrives—between the owners, the surrounding landscape, and the local community. The home’s generous layout, with its open-plan living areas and connection to the outdoors, makes it the perfect backdrop for creating memories with loved ones.
By balancing the original charm of the home with these modern touches, Studio Doherty has crafted a dwelling that feels timeless, yet forward-looking. Elonera House is more than just a beautifully designed space; it’s a home that invites warmth, connection, and togetherness.
