The Next Chapter

Solace

A singular residence in Northcote's Westgarth pocket, designed for calm, refinement and an easy balance between architecture and everyday life.

Location: Northcote
Type: Private residence
Architecture: Mason Bright
Interiors: Mason Bright

A home that commands attention without demanding it.

Designed by Mason Bright, Solace pairs a textural cream brick facade and bronze-framed glazing with a double-height entry that is confident yet quietly understated. Every material was chosen for the way it ages, deepening in character over time.

Inside, two generous living zones open through floor-to-ceiling glazing to the alfresco, pool and landscaped courtyards, so indoor and outdoor living run as one. Stone, timber and linen sit in careful proportion, animated by light that shifts through the day.

Composed presence

Cream brick, bronze-framed glazing and a double-height entry give Solace a presence that is confident without ever raising its voice.

Light and calm

Light courts, soaring volumes and linen sheers create moments of openness and privacy in equal measure.

Materials that age well

Book-matched stone, marble, terrazzo, quartzite and oak, chosen for how they deepen in character over time.

Life inside and out

Two living zones, a guest pavilion and a resort-style alfresco and pool, shaped around how a family actually lives.
