42 Urquhart Street, Hawthorn

At the heart, a Japanese courtyard garden by Kihara Landscapes brings the stillness of Kyoto’s mountains into Hawthorn. Maple branches stretch towards the onsen, while water, timber, and shadow transform space into sanctuary. Sliding bi-fold screens allow the home to breathe with the seasons, dissolving the boundary between inside and out. Light filters gently through timber while nature flows into every room. Each detail reflects a reverence for tradition, executed with architectural precision and clarity.
