THE ARCHITECTURE
Distinctively designed by architect Wayne Gillespie and lovingly renovated in 2022, SAGRES embraces the modern era whilst maintaining its original vision to create beautiful and functional spaces inspired by the Mediterranean coastline.
Wayne Gillespie designed Sagres to be a beach house; functional, comfortable and with the most spectacular views. Wayne’s designs are well known for their proportions and Sagres is no exception. As you walk up the first inspiring staircase you’ll get a peek of the first of many breathtaking views of Queenscliff’s Nuns Beach.
It was important that the updated interiors complimented the original design while allowing the surroundings to soak in from the comfort of relaxed organic fibres. Layers of neutral tones and textures build a base for colour, soft patterns and fun objects.
This luxury Queenscliff based house is a brilliant mix of colour and texture in a beautiful and calm environment that you’ll never want to leave.
INTERIORS SHOWCASING AUSTRALIAN BRANDS
Recently renovated in 2022, Sagres Queenscliff is accessed via a grand driveway, featuring beautifully landscaped Australian coastal plants.
With a new lease on life, Sagres has been updated to embrace the modern era whilst remaining in check with Wayne Gillespie’s architectural vision. Interior specialist, Emily Fitzgerald has worked alongside owner and property entrepreneur, Jo Youl to create beautiful and functional spaces for families or couples wanting to spend some quality time together. The timeless aesthetic has been inspired by the Mediterranean coastline.
Emily & Jo have hand picked some of Australia’s best furniture, art and textiles to add layers to the house and bring it to life.
Bright mornings, as the sun peeps through the curtains, soft linens brushing against your skin. The ocean calling your name. The sweet smell of fresh fruit and coffee flowing into your room. Tranquil summer nights inspire us. Fresh Seabreeze, cheese, wine. Swimmers on, toes coated in sand. Sagres around your waist.
Inspired by summer holidays spent on the Italian coastline, warm days, ocean breeze. The radiant colours of the sky from sunrise to sunset, layers of pink, orange and yellow. The feeling of the sun touching your skin.
Mother nature, a constant inspiration. Rolling waves and shell lined shores. Blue skies and white clouds. A rising moon and a setting sun. Forever illuminating our creative side and boosting colours through our designs.
Holidays consisting of sunny days, bright smiles and vibrant colours. Fresh produce and a glass of chilled red in hand. Earthy moments spent by the sea, collecting a range of coloured shells and immersing in crystal clear water.
QUOIN THE LABEL
Inspired by the rugged landscape and raw beauty of Sagres, Queenscliff & Flinders Island in Bass Straight, we create limited edition textiles for the wild at heart.
Our love of the water runs deep here at Quoin the label. From our island home, we have designed luxurious towels that are inspired by this incredible place. Our designs this season are a nod to our partner venture, On Island Time, an accommodation and restaurant collective on Flinders Island. The colours chosen for each design are reflective of the unique natural landscape around each property.
Sagres collections are available now to purchase!
