Diamond Beach
Villa Palma is located at Diamond Beach on the mid-north coast of NSW, three hours north of Sydney.
A luxury and private beach retreat was designed by Garth with a contemporary style in mind.
Surrounded by terraces and sea views, it was built with the luxury rental market in mind.
With entertaining at the heart of the home, glass sliding doors open from the formal and informal living areas, seamlessly connecting with courtyards, swimming pool and individual alfresco dining spaces. High ceilings and wide corridors complete the sense of space.
Massive carved antique doors from India, stone works from Indonesia and Bali, inlaid cabinetry from Morocco, art works from Australia and Europe combine to transport one to faraway lands.
For all his properties, Garth styled them himself prior to photographic shoots or marketing, never relying on a stylist.
