Digital basics—printing, scanning, online forms—are made easy here without turning the clubhouse into an office. The composition is welcoming rather than corporate: pale panelling, timber shelving, and carefully chosen lighting that keeps eyes comfortable during short online tasks.

The workstation wall extends the library’s material language with painted vertical boards, a warm timber shelf and a long desktop detailed with a front shadow line to appear lighter. Screens are arm-mounted to keep the surface clear. Power, data and printer access are corralled to one side so the rest of the bench remains calm. A continuous linear pendant delivers diffuse light to the work area, while a secondary LED at the shelf underside adds ambience and highlights small objects or potted plants.

Ergonomics are simple and forgiving. Chair bases are stable and easily adjustable, with softly padded arms that make sitting down and standing up comfortable. Sightlines from the lounge remain open, so someone using the desk still feels part of the room rather than isolated in a corner. Acoustically, soft furnishings and books absorb sound, making conversations and keyboard clicks unobtrusive.

Two compact armchairs in the foreground offer a quieter pocket for one-to-one chats or reading; their rounded forms and timber legs echo the rest of the clubhouse furniture family so the interior feels cohesive as you move between rooms. The net effect is a study area that feels domestic, dignified and genuinely useful.

More on this project

A robust pergola shelters an outdoor table setting, paired with timber-and-steel benches around a fire bowl. The space hosts everything from long lunches to evening events, connecting directly to garden paths and planting.

Alfresco Dining Pergola & Firepit Benches

A calm, private sun deck edges the pool hall, stepping out to citrus-toned planting and views of the courtyard. Generous loungers, café settings and a low fence keep the space sociable yet secure—perfect for a slow morning or post-swim pause.

Pool Terrace & Sun Deck

A light-filled dining room anchored by a soft, curved fireplace. Timber tables, upholstered chairs and artful planting create the feeling of an all-day neighbourhood café.

Dining Lounge & Fireplace

From the shallow end, the pool reads like a sunroom—quiet light, soft planting and long perspectives that make daily laps feel like a ritual rather than a routine.

Wellness Pool: Long View

A welcoming corridor leads to concierge. Timber lockers and a long bench add usefulness; patterned walling and framed views add delight. The result: a functional, art-led arrival that still feels calm.

Arrival & Concierge

A warm, flexible “great room” where dinners, trivia nights and club meetings flow around a generous chef’s island, layered timber joinery and soft sheers to the garden terrace.

The Living Room

A generous island anchors the residents’ kitchen, pairing a boldly veined stone with pale timber joinery. Soft task lighting washes a square-tiled splashback, while integrated appliances and slimline stools turn the space into a relaxed hub for cooking, classes and communal dining.

Clubhouse Kitchen & Entertaining Island

A club-style games lounge pairs a full-size billiards table with café-height tables beside sheer curtains. Upholstered bench seating, long linear pendants and acoustic treatment temper the buzz, encouraging everything from tournaments to quiet card games and morning coffees.

Games Lounge with Pool Table

A sheltered outdoor lounge opens directly to the central garden. Deep, low chairs and a compact coffee table create a conversational setting, while the covered edge provides shade, weather protection and a gentle threshold between indoor comforts and the landscape beyond.

Covered Terrace to Courtyard

Curving paths stitch together lawns, native planting and shaded seating. The clubhouse reads as a series of calm pavilions, while mature eucalypts lend character and scale. It’s an easy landscape to stroll, pause and meet neighbours in.
