COPACABANA residence
A timeless Copacabana coastal home designed for living well.
This Copacabana residence renovation on the NSW Central Coast reimagines a dated coastal home as a calm, long-term retreat for a Sydney couple approaching retirement. The interior design prioritises relaxed everyday living while offering the flexibility to host children and grandchildren, creating a home that feels both deeply personal and effortlessly welcoming.
Guided by a brief centred on durability, understated refinement and family connection, the renovation balances practical materials with quietly elegant detailing. Thoughtfully planned spaces support the rhythms of coastal living while ensuring the home remains low-maintenance and resilient for years to come.
The result is a timeless coastal interior in Copacabana, designed for gathering, slowing down and enjoying time together. From considered layouts to carefully curated finishes, the home reflects Howard Lane Designs’ approach to thoughtful, functional interiors grounded in everyday living.
