“A light-filled home on Sydney’s Northern Beaches emits relaxed, holiday vibes through its calming palette and natural materials.

When you step inside Olivia Babarczy's home you can't help but take a deep sigh of relief. It might have something to do with the sounds of the ocean in the distance, the fresh, open spaces or the refined mixture of natural elements and sumptuous textures.

Prior to the Babarczy family moving in, the home had mainly been used as a holiday house, and as a result was fairly neglected. "We undertook a full renovation, gutting most rooms and replacing all of the rotten decks – nothing was left untouched!" Olivia says.”
