EXTERIOR AND OUTDOOR SPACES

Modern white multi-story house with a gated front yard, surrounded by tropical plants and adjacent to a wooden house.

Light, bright, quintessential Byron Bay beach house – Lavana House, offers 4 expansive bedrooms, multiple living areas and outdoor zones, along with the perfect blend of carefully curated design elements and the rawness of the Australian coastal palette. Lavana House is light filled and designed specifically for entertaining and hosting larger groups boasting a number of open plan zones and break out spaces as well as a perfectly oriented, north facing alfresco space with a heated pool, covered dining and sitting areas and BBQ space designed to be enjoyed year-round.

KITCHEN AND DINING

Modern kitchen with light green cabinets, wooden accents, kitchen island with bar stools, and wooden dining table with chairs.

Driven by its proximity to the pristine Byron coastline, Lavana House (the Sanskrit word for ‘sea salt’) favours a light and bright palette worthy of a beach-house interior. Sandy neutrals, cool greys and oceanic pastels feature in the walls, floors, joinery and decor, “encouraging a sense of calmness and relaxation just as the ocean would on a serene summer’s day,” says Melissa. Crisp whites on the walls and outside spaces continue the summery scheme

THE MASTER BEDROOM

The master bedroom at Lavana House is a serene coastal retreat, perfectly attuned to its Byron Bay surroundings. Soft blue tones and airy, flowing drapery create a fresh, tranquil atmosphere that invites you to unwind from the moment you enter. Located on the upper level for added privacy, this restful sanctuary features a beautifully designed ensuite and opens onto its own private balcony—offering a quiet space to soak in the ocean air and morning light. Thoughtfully curated for comfort and calm, the master suite is the heart of Lavana’s relaxed luxury.

BEDROOMS and BUNKROOM

Bedroom with two beds, copper frames, colorful pillows, vibrant jungle-themed wallpaper, and a loft area with wooden guardrails and a ladder.

The two guest bedrooms at Lavana House echo the same breezy, coastal charm as the master—soft blues, light linens, and gentle textures create a calming space that feels both welcoming and refined. Each room is thoughtfully styled to reflect the laid-back beauty of Byron Bay, offering guests a peaceful retreat with an unmistakable holiday feel. Then there’s the bunk room—the ultimate fun zone designed to spark joy. With built-in bunks, playful styling, and plenty of space for little (or not-so-little) guests to relax and play, it’s a room that brings instant smiles and lasting memories.

BATHROOMS, POWDER ROOM & LAUNDRY

Bathroom with a freestanding oval bathtub near a window with shutters, a wooden vanity with a vessel sink, and a woven pendant light fixture.

At Lavana House, the bathrooms, powder room, and laundry are more than just functional spaces—they're elevated, thoughtfully designed retreats that surprise and delight. Stone wall features bring a raw, textural beauty to each room, adding a natural and unexpected element that perfectly complements the home’s coastal vibe. In the bathrooms, this tactile detail creates a sense of grounded luxury, paired with soft finishes and a calming palette that invites relaxation. The powder room makes a bold yet refined statement—compact, but rich in character—while the laundry balances practicality with style, proving that even the most utilitarian spaces can be beautiful. These are everyday moments, made extraordinary.

OFFICE, STAIRS AND ENTRY

A minimalist interior with wooden stairs, a white wall, a small decorative plant on a wall-mounted table, and a framed artwork.

The transition spaces at Lavana House are a quiet celebration of craftsmanship and coastal elegance. Featuring oak detailing and rattan accents throughout, these moments between rooms are anything but overlooked. From softly curved staircases to light-filled hallways, every passage is designed to feel warm, tactile, and intentionally connected. The natural materials bring texture and depth, while creating a consistent thread of relaxed sophistication that carries throughout the home. These spaces don’t just take you from A to B—they invite you to slow down and appreciate the journey.

Why Kitchen Renovations Go Wrong — And How to Prevent It

Kitchen renovations rarely unravel at layout or concept stage — they unravel when the documentation lacks detail.

Incomplete drawings leave room for interpretation, variation costs and on-site compromise.

Layouts are sketched loosely. Cabinetry not fully detailed. Appliance clearances aren’t resolved. Builders are left to interpret instead of execute. That’s where budget blowouts and site compromises begin.

The Lavana House Kitchen & Laundry Plans provide a professionally resolved, builder-ready documentation set — including scaled floor plans, internal elevations, cabinetry layouts and an editable CAD (DWG) file.

Not a concept. A proven working set of kitchen renovation drawings designed to move straight into construction.
