Farm House In Australia Features A Stylish Renovation

Canny Architects have sent us their latest project, a traditional farm house located in Flinders, a town south of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, that was given an incredible contemporary renovation. A dark exterior facade surrounded is surrounded by a beautifully landscaped lawn and gardens. Walls of glass at the rear of the property allows natural light into the home and helps blur the boundaries between indoors and out. Upon entryway into the home through barn-like doors, you will notice moody interiors that presents an interesting composition of both textures and hues, making this countryside home very elegant and chic.

The dark and moody ambiance of the interior living environments lends an air of sophistication and style that makes this home very livable. A contemporary farmhouse in the country provides the ultimate in relaxed, easy living. What do you think, could you find yourself living here?

In an otherwise dark space, a visual contrast has been added with a white sofa and fireplace surround that travels all the way up to the ceiling. A built-in window seat adjacent to the fireplace adds a cozy space to enjoy the heat from the fire and curl up to read a book.
