Name: Vanta
Why: Vanta” is inspired by Vantablack, which is one of the darkest artificial substances known. Often associated with modernity, sleekness, and cutting-edge design. The dark upper facade with vertical slats has a deep, modern aesthetic similar to the look of Vantablack. The name “Vanta” evokes sophistication, mystery, and bold minimalism, all of which align with the architectural style of this house.
Bold, refined, and unapologetically modern. Vanta is a 370sqm architectural residence set on a 488sqm block in Calamvale.
Inspired by the depth and elegance of its namesake, the design embraces clean geometry, striking vertical battens, and a contrasting monochrome palette that evokes both strength and simplicity. Natural stone cladding adds a tactile sense of luxury to the façade, while the dark tones create a commanding street presence.
Inside, Vanta continues its bold narrative with marble-look stone finishes, dark timber cabinetry, and concrete-effect French wash paint , all carefully curated to enhance texture and tone. A dual kitchen design brings functionality and form together, complemented by full-height joinery and a custom built-in TV unit. The dramatic void above the living space floods the interior with natural light and scale, giving the home its defining sense of spatial grandeur.
Vanta is more than a home , it’s a statement in modern architecture.
