The Local Project – Whispering Dunes
Whispering Dunes by Homeroom Studio in Melbourne embodies a refined balance between past and present, creating a serene escape grounded by Made by Storey flooring.
The palette is enriched by a stone selection with heavy veining, bringing movement and depth to the design, and grounding the home in a natural sensibility.
The design approach for Whispering Dunes was deeply influenced by the home’s surroundings. “Given its proximity to a park and the established trees surrounding the property, we wanted to create an immediate feeling of stillness and tranquillity upon entering the home,” explains Romy Dankner, director of Homeroom Studio. The aim was to provide the clients and their young children with a peaceful sanctuary, blending traditional detailing with modern materiality to create a cohesive and elegant space that speaks to both heritage and contemporary sensibilities.
