‘The Hamptons Style’ Home

When designing custom homes there are many trends you can choose from to incorporate into your brand new build. One of the most popular trends at the moment has got to be ‘The Hamptons Style’ which emits a coastal and relaxed feel throughout the home and symbolizes the lifestyle many Australians strive to achieve.

What defines the Hamptons Style? 

There are many aspects that define the Hamptons Style which, ultimately, are incorporated to create a coastal and relaxed feel in a home. A home that is designed with the Hamptons Style in mind should be airy and open allowing the indoors to overlap the boundaries of your outdoor living spaces.

This can be achieved through an open-living floor plan where the home maximizes the use of natural light and neutral colours to great effect. The natural light and spacious design allows the home to flow while the neutral colours allow for a relaxed vibe. The main colours used are white, light grey and creams while adding a dash of black and tones of blue or green to really pull the coastal aesthetic together.

Hamptons Style Home Exterior 

The exterior of a Hamptons style home should incorporate the same colours as the interior. This would be predominately light greys and whites with a possible splash of darker grey to define certain features in the home’s exterior and façade.

VJ Timber cladding is one of the main features of a Hamptons Style exterior. Decking in matching colours to the home is also a great way to add flow from the inside of a Hamptons Style home to the outdoors. With the addition of outdoor furniture to accent the coastal feel of the home everything is tied together in the spacious and airy design.

Hamptons Style Home Interior 

The interior of a Hamptons Style home should be neutral at first but then accentuated with various features that bring the home to life. To achieve this, you want to start with furniture that looks easy going, comfortable and relaxing while still sticking to the Hamptons colour scheme.

You can broaden your colour pallete in your home from blues and neutral colours to green by incorporating indoor plants or pillows. Choosing palms and other coastal varieties will pull the whole look together in a fresh and vibrant way. Organisation is a key element in the Hamptons style, you should ensure that your home looks organised and not clutter filled. You can achieve this by incorporating Shaker style cabinetry, especially in the kitchen.

There are many other elements that also bring the Hamptons style together including mudrooms and butler’s pantries, which are becoming more popular in Australian homes due to their practicality. VJ wall paneling, dado rails and oversized architraves and skirtings compliment the walls of a Hamptons style home creating a classical air about the room.

Exposed rafters, timber floors and detailed timber balustrades and hand rails allow for the relaxed traditional style to shine through in all its glory allowing you to add classical and sophisticated furniture and fixtures to match including goose neck tapware and pendant lighting.

Designing Your Custom Dream Home

Before you start designing your custom home you need to have a vision! This will become the foundation for your design and the final result that will, ultimately, become your new home. So, what is the type of custom home that you envision and how do you go about expanding this idea into an actual design?

Let’s start with the basics!

Inspiration and research
You probably have a rough idea about what you imagine your perfect home to look like but to start getting a proper design in place you need to do your research. Luckily, there is a HUGE resource you can use called the Internet! With millions of designs and features to inspire you.

If there are certain features that you particularly like and want to incorporate into your custom home save them and create a folder or mood board you can refer back to. This will help organise your thoughts and keep everything together for when you are ready to plan the layout of your new custom home.

Refine the Plan

The next stage of designing your custom homes is refining your ideas and planning the home’s layout. Take the features you like and make a list of the must haves and the ones that you can do without. Maybe a third option called budget pending, that you are happy to leave if you must but if budget allows would like incorporated into the design. This will give you a clear idea of what your needs are and will give you a bit of discipline so you don’t go over what you can afford.

Your builder will then have a better idea of what you are after, maybe you can’t fit the butler’s pantry in but your builder has an option for additional storage in the kitchen or laundry.

Consult and finalise with a custom builder

Once you have your plan list you and your builder can design a rough floorplan of your new custom home. This allows you to determine where you want certain rooms and how you want your design and overall house to flow. Your builder will also be able to considering ways to cut costs for plumbing and power or make the home more energy efficient. 

Your builder will be able to tell you everything you need to know about building your custom home as well as features that will and won’t work in your design.

At this appointment you can also discuss budget, materials, colour choice and so that you and your custom builder are both on the same page when the time comes to start the most exciting project of your life!

So what are you waiting for? Start collecting your ideas and we look forward to turning the dream house you envision into a reality.


Buy A Bale for farmers in need

Buy A Bale – Over $3500 Raised So Far!

In July last year, I read a story about a farmer that broke my heart. They were having to kill off their live stock just to survive because the drought was destroying their land, the animals had no food and water and the farm became unsustainable. Over the years I’ve met a lot of farmers, including my father and this story just hit home. I decided that for every house we signed in the year following we would donate $500.00 to the farmers in need across Australia. We have since signed up 7 homes raising $3500.00 for many farmers in need of drought relief help.
We will continue our plight to donate as should everyone who can spare some change. Every little bit helps.

If you want to give a gift this Christmas that really supports those in need, buy a bale and support the farmers that are supporting us every single day.
If you would like help out, you can donate at www.buyabale.com.au.
