On Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, a once-unassuming home has been reimagined into something quite extraordinary. Designed by KWD as a family retreat, Biscayne blends bold architectural gestures with a lightness of spirit. With the relaxed charm of an island getaway, filtered through a distinctly Australian lens, it feels effortless and entirely its own.
Described by Kate Walker as ‘Caribbean Colonial’, the home’s resort-style aesthetic is layered with details that feel collected, warm and uplifting. We were proud to collaborate with the KWD team to help bring this vision to life. Through sculptural pendants, graceful wall sconces and exterior accents, feature lighting from our collection was selected to amplify the home’s rhythm and resort-style sensibility.
Sun-washed and soul-stirring, Biscayne by KWD is coastal living at its most refined. This is a place designed not just to look beautiful, but to live beautifully.
