This one-story house in Canterbury, Australia, is elegantly furnished with an open design and offers exceptional living comfort. Designed by the architecture and design firm Canny, the house appears simple and restrained from the outside, yet impresses with clean lines, soft material combinations and successful modern details.
Residential Design by Canny: A Modern House with an Open Plan

The open-plan house responds to contemporary living needs. Space is optimized, and furniture and architectural elements are reduced to a minimum. One open room contains all the functional areas and creates a generous sense of space.
Pure Elegance in a Rectangular Form

Individual decorative elements create special points of focus and shape the character of the house. Recessed ceiling lights reinforce the impression of refined, functional minimalism. In the kitchen, high-gloss fronts and an island with a fine marble slab form an elegant contrast with the rough, rustic solid-wood dining table. The living area opens to the garden through large sliding glass doors. Laminate wood flooring visually warms the overall composition.
