Located in Brisbane’s north, Grange Haus is a modern family home defined by a beautifully restrained palette and a strong emphasis on material quality.
Designed by Happy Haus, the interiors favour subdued tones and organic interior finishes to create a home that is imbued with a sense of calm and connection to the natural environment.
Despite a relatively small footprint the home feels light, bright and inviting. At the heart of the home oak timber joinery, soft green hues and superior finishes establish a natural, pared-back base. Brazilian emerald quartzite then brings a sense of richness and depth, its distinctive veining adding colour and luxury without overwhelming the space. Complementing the stone, ABI Interiors Elysian collection tapware in brushed brass introduces warmth and refinement. The gold finish enhances the emerald tones of the quartzite, creating an opulent yet understated layer of luxury within the otherwise restrained interior.
Referencing the materiality of the exterior, Australian riverstone is brought inside as a feature wall, while bifold windows strengthen the connection between indoors and out, allowing garden greenery to become part of the interior backdrop. A sculptural staircase sits between the kitchen and living zones, acting as a subtle divider while still allowing natural light to move freely through the space.
Australian riverstone appears again at ground level, its soft, neutral tones used as rock bedding to ground the room with a strong sense of natural texture. Potted greenery further reinforces the home’s biophilic approach, creating a visual continuity between the interior spaces and the surrounding landscape.
Living areas are open and relaxed, shaped around everyday family life. Soft furnishings, layered textures and a consistent palette ensure the spaces feel welcoming and comfortable, while maintaining a clear visual connection back to the home’s core material story.
Bathrooms follow the same material logic with subdued tones and simple finishes creating a calm foundation, while emerald quartzite and ABI Interiors brushed brass fixtures add the luxurious element. The result is spaces that feel elevated without excess, where luxury comes from material quality rather than decoration.
Grange Haus shows how restrained interiors can still feel luxurious. By pairing subdued, natural tones with the richness of Brazilian emerald quartzite and the warmth of ABI Interiors’ brushed brass Elysian tapware, the home achieves a refined, understated sense of luxury that feels balanced, deliberate and enduring.
