Name: Liora
Element: Earth
Why: Liora evokes light, grace, and grounded elegance. The home’s neoclassical symmetry, limestone textures, and sculptural façade are illuminated both literally and metaphorically by its thoughtful spatial composition and refined materiality. Rooted in the Earth element, Liora speaks to permanence, poise, and architectural serenity.
A residence of sculpted grace and luminous presence, Liora pairs neoclassical form with contemporary refinement. Its façade is defined by a soaring entry portico, fluted columns, and a winged upper-level projection that casts elegant shadows across textured walls and parapet moldings.
Inside the interiors unfold with quiet confidence, defined by neutral surfaces, bold black accents, and sculptural detailing that brings a sense of cohesion throughout. The entry sequence opens to a double-height void, where natural light cascades across pale stone-look flooring and crisp white walls. A curved staircase with timber treads and an intricately detailed balustrade adds a graceful architectural gesture, anchoring the space with fluid movement.
The kitchen is a study in tonal harmony where matte white cabinetry is paired with subtle stone benchtops, glass display cabinetry and minimalist hardware, keeping the palette refined, while a central island offers generous prep space and casual seating. Adjacent, the butler’s pantry continues the clean-lined aesthetic with open shelving and concealed storage.
Throughout the home, wainscoting and colonial-style glazing add a touch of classical rhythm, while contemporary lighting and fixtures maintain a modern sensibility. The result is a home that feels both timeless and distinctly of the present.
