Tucked away at the end of a private driveway, this striking home combines architectural elegance with self-sufficiency. It\u2019s a perfect balance of luxury, performance, and environmental responsibility.<\/p>\n\n<p>Designed by Ben Mulholland from Little Brick Studio, the home features a sharp, geometric facade. Warm natural materials\u2014like timber and stone\u2014soften the bold structure. Native Australian plants complete the look, blending the house into its bushland surroundings.<\/p>\n\n<p>At the heart of the open-plan living space hangs the <em>Bordelet Tatiana 997 suspended fireplace<\/em>. Handmade in the south of France, this artisan wood fire is crafted from hand-shaped and spun steel. Its design offers 180-degree flame visibility and optional 360-degree rotation. It doesn\u2019t just heat the room\u2014it transforms it.<\/p>\n\n<p>The fireplace anchors the space. It adds drama without feeling heavy. Its floating form allows the layout to feel open and connected. Whether viewed from the kitchen, lounge, or dining area, the fire becomes a shared focal point.<\/p>\n\n<p>Inside, finishes remain natural and refined. Polished concrete floors, timber ceilings, and soft furnishings keep the palette calm and warm. Large windows draw in light and open to native gardens beyond.<\/p>\n\n<p>Function was just as important as form. The house includes off-grid systems, passive heating, and durable materials built for Australian conditions. Every decision supports a long-term vision of comfort, sustainability, and beauty.<\/p>\n\n<p>In short, The Merilyn Project is a home that performs as well as it looks. The <em>Bordelet Tatiana 997 suspended fireplace<\/em> ties it all together\u2014uniting French craftsmanship with modern Australian design in a way that feels effortless.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Builder<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swellbuildinggroup.com\/\">Swell Building Group<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Designer<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.littlebrickstudio.com.au\/\">Little Brick Studio<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Merilyn Project is a bold statement in sustainable design.
