Name: Onyx
Element: Earth
Why: Onyx evokes depth, clarity, and grounded sophistication. Like the layered stone it’s named after, the home reveals its strength through contrast where crisp whites meet moody charcoals, and every detail is composed with architectural consideration.
Anchored in the leafy surrounds of Taringa, Onyx is a residence defined by bold contrast and refined geometry. Its façade pairs deep charcoal accents with crisp white cladding and stacked stone piers, creating a layered silhouette that shifts with the light.
Inside, the home unfolds with deliberate rhythm. Engineered timber flooring grounds the living zones, while the kitchen, detailed in White and Grey shaker cabinetry, elegant grey-veined stone benchtops, and matte black fixtures, offers a tonal counterpoint of contrast and strength. Mosaic splashbacks and layered lighting add texture and depth, while the openable window from the butler’s pantry to the alfresco creates a seamless dialogue between interior and exterior inviting natural light, airflow, and effortless entertaining.
Upstairs, private retreats unfold along a gallery-like corridor, where tall vertical windows, sculptural stair balustrades, and a cascading chandeliers create a rhythm of light, shadow, and spatial elegance.
The master ensuite features full-height Carrara tiling, feature pendant lighting, and recessed niches, each detail echoing the home’s commitment to contrast and cohesion. A wine cellar tucked beneath the stair and layered ceiling heights throughout reinforce the architectural narrative.
Onyx is a home of elemental strength and quiet drama, where contrast is not just aesthetic, but foundational.
