Never Too Small for Travancore
Apartment Renovation, A Contemporary Haven Redefining Small Living
In the heart of Melbourne, where space is a precious commodity, Never Too Small For Travancore stands as a testament to the brilliance of small-scale living. Inspired by the ingenuity showcased on the "Never Too Small" Youtube channel, a favorite of our clients, this project redefines compact living with a focus on sensible design, ample storage, and aesthetic appeal.
-
Living in a small footprint doesn't mean compromising on sensibility or style. Never Too Small For Travancore is a celebration of efficient design, abundant storage, and a visually pleasing aesthetic that transforms a modest 2-bedroom apartment into a haven of order and harmony.
-
How do you make a small apartment feel bigger? With clean lines, plenty of integrated storage, borrowed natural light, and strategically placed mirrored surfaces.
The interiors of Never Too Small For Travancore are defined by sustainability and natural materials. From joinery to acoustic walls and indirect lighting, the use of eco-friendly elements not only adds to the aesthetic appeal but also contributes to a harmonious living environment.
Practical Joinery Solutions: Fold-up panels, sliding doors, hidden compartments, internal drawers – every detail in Never Too Small For Travancore is meticulously designed to create practical joinery solutions. These elements ensure that the space is not just visually appealing but also highly functional, accommodating the needs of our clients seamlessly.
Earthy Tones and Natural Light: The color scheme intentionally mirrors the earthy tones of the park outside, infusing the space with warmth and natural light. Despite the limited footprint, the design ensures that the interiors never feel dark, creating an inviting atmosphere that resonates with the tranquil surroundings.
Never Too Small For Travancore is more than a renovation project; it's a testament to the idea that small living can be both sensible and stunning. Join us in discovering the art of maximizing space, fostering efficiency, and creating a haven where simplicity meets sophistication in the heart of Melbourne.

“It’s not a matter of more space.
It’s a matter of the existing space working more effectively and being fit for purpose.”

Kind Words
“Working with Audrey and Winnie to renovate our first apartment has been great. Their process was really solid and client centred. They’re great listeners and very thoughtful, as well as open minded to boot.
They never put any time pressure on us and had a very human and gentle approach - a great asset because re-designing your home can become really daunting and a much bigger task than you imagined! But they held our hands all the way.
They’re all over the best choices environment wise, included great elements of bio-philia and helped us to recycle a lot of existing items and material at our request.
Lastly, they’ve got a great attitude to integrated design and project development. They were really keen to link up with our chosen trades and work together on getting things right. Our tradies really loved that and were really impressed with the drawings and elevations Audrey and Winnie provided them.
A great team to work with!”

““Removing friction from the everyday” means understanding what the ideal everyday looks like for our clients and streamlining that through simple design interventions.
Here we mapped the habits of the clients’ routines to understand what was important to them.”
