A Stylish Redesign Inspired by the Hunter Valley
Tasked with creating a look that captures the spirit of the Hunter Valley, Mel Porter Design curated a fresh palette of earthy browns, light sands, chic greys, and rich burgundy, complemented by pops of bright yellow and olive green. These colors reflect the region's natural and winemaking heritage, offering guests a sense of place from the moment they step inside.
The apartments now feature:
- Plank-style vinyl flooring in living spaces for a natural, modern feel.
- Plantation shutters to control light while maintaining privacy.
- Stone benchtops and wooden wall-mounted bedheads that connect interiors with the outdoors.
Collaborating with the expert team at Dezign, the apartments underwent a top-to-bottom transformation. Updates include:
- New carpeting in bedrooms and living areas.
- Fresh kitchen cabinetry, state-of-the-art appliances, mixers, and sinks.
- Stylish pendant lighting, strip lighting, and accent lamps.
- Modernized light switches and electrical systems.
Touches of Elegance and Sophistication
Unique design elements add sophistication to the apartments, such as:
- A feature stone wall for the living room fireplace, serving as a focal point.
- A stunning chandelier above the dining table, offering a touch of luxury.
These details ensure the apartments exude a contemporary yet timeless charm, providing both comfort and style for members and guests.
A Commitment to Sustainability and Community
In keeping with Accor Vacation Club’s sustainability practices, quality furniture removed during the refurbishment was donated to local non-profits and charities. Additionally, metal products, packaging, and wood were responsibly recycled, minimizing environmental impact.
