There’s no question that Sydney is experiencing a housing squeeze. Housing affordability and a tight rental market has created a desire for homes able to organically cater for several generations.

The two-storey residence has five bedrooms, including a master suite overlooking the back garden and pool. One of the additional bedrooms upstairs has a walk-in robe while a fifth bedroom downstairs comes complete with built-in robes and ensuite, making it ideal for adult children, or as in-law accommodation.
Constructed by award-winning builder, Binet Homes, the house has taken its design cues from Hamptons style, with a spacious Shaker-style kitchen kitted out with double ovens, Bosch appliances, bar and light-filled butler’s pantry.
Plantation shutters, bi-fold windows and sliding doors manage light and ventilation as well as creating a seamless link between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Odd Culture Group brings a new kind of after-dark energy to the CBD, where daiquiris, disco and design collide beneath the city streets.
Sydney’s nightlife has long flirted with reinvention, but its latest arrival suggests something more deliberate is taking shape beneath the surface.
Razz Room, the new underground bar and disco from Odd Culture Group, has opened in the CBD, marking the group’s first step into the city centre.
Tucked below street level on York Street, the venue blends cocktail culture with a shifting, late-night rhythm that moves from after-work drinks to full dancefloor immersion.
The space itself is designed to evolve over the course of an evening. An upper bar offers a more intimate setting, suited to early drinks and conversation, while a sunken dancefloor anchors the venue’s later hours, with a rotating program of DJs and live performances.
“Razz Room will really change shape throughout a single evening,” says Odd Culture Group CEO Rebecca Lines.
“Earlier, it’s geared towards post-work drinks with a happy hour, substantial food offering, and music at a level where you can still talk.”
As the night progresses, that tone shifts.
“As the evening progresses at Razz Room, you can expect the music to get a little louder and the focus will shift to live performance with recurring residencies and DJs that flow from disco to house, funk, and jazz,” Rebecca says.
The concept draws heavily on New York’s underground club scene before disco became mainstream, referencing venues such as The Mudd Club and Paradise Garage. But the intention is not nostalgia.
“The space told us what it wanted to be,” Lines explains. “Disco started as a counter culture… Razz Room is no nostalgia project, it’s a reimagining of the next era of the discotheque.”
Design, too, plays its part in shaping the experience. The upper level is warm and textural, with timber finishes and burnt-orange tones, while the sunken floor shifts into a more theatrical mood, combining Art Deco references with a raw, industrial edge.
