When you step inside Bec Berrell’s family home, on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, it’s hard not to be overwhelmed by the feeling of relaxation. From the wide hallway to the high-pitched roof, gas strut window and views of the pool and garden, this home exudes all the “holiday at home” vibes that she laid out on her vision board and that were brought to life by Rama Architects. Colour featured: Dulux Lexicon® Quarter.
Living the dream
Bec, a Three Birds Reno School graduate, welcomed Lana inside her family’s new home for a room-by-room tour. You’ll be blown away by this beautiful beach house as Bec explains how she combined the practical and the pretty to bring her dream home to life.
Inspiration central
Lana was the lucky Bird who got the opportunity to spend time with Bec Berrell, owner of the gorgeous Beach House H2O on Sydney's Northern Beaches that was designed by Rama Architects.
This beach house comes with sexy storage and loads of clever ideas (such as a hidden sauna), that might give you some inspo you can use for your home.

Kitchen triumph
What a dream kitchen! The size, the storage, the layout – it's just fabulous.
The walls, ceiling and polyurethane kitchen cabinetry are painted in Lexicon® Quarter to blend perfectly and make the whole space look even bigger.
When designing your kitchen, don’t forget to measure out the space between your island and back bench, we think about 1200mm is just about perfect.
Exterior painting tip!
Colours can look different in the sun and shade and different again up close compared to from a distance, so make sure you always consider this before settling on your chosen colour.
