But it's the integration of this design duo's stylish accessories at every corner that provides the DiCasa signature flair. Jute, wicker, and bamboo baskets are scattered around the house with porcelain balls and nautical accessories, sculptures and custom hand painted art aligns the walls, curated for every room.

DESIGN

La Brecque was bolded procured by DiCasa and was over two years in the making. The designers had a vision for this unique coastal property which is unrecognisable from its original form. Their biscuit-coloured hues cover their signature DiCasa robes, which are scattered around this beach house beauty, ready for your early morning dips.

Even the home lighting has been custom designed internally and externally and, crafted to indulge the impressive night skies of Jersey. Controlled by Lutron switches, one can fully programme the property to your personal preferences for mood, setting and security.

STAIRS

The main staircase, which leads to the master and second bedroom, is a custom-made European oak cut strung staircase with a structural glass balustrade, complementing the minimalistic but luxurious aesthetic.



A second spiral staircase sits in the hall like a piece of art and clever architectural feat but presents total functionality as it leads to the third and fourth bedrooms on the first floor. With the feel of a permanent sculpture, the spiral façade was constructed over 2 months with state-of-the-art CNC machinery and traditional joinery by the skilled joiners at local firm Trinity Joinery in Jersey. It is made up of multiple layers of Birchwood which has been formed to the radius required inside a stud work former. The oak treads were installed at site in the final assembly process, which was a masterclass and feat of engineering to install.

BEDROOMS

The bedrooms have a distinctly boutique hotel vibe, with their bohemian luxe décor, natural fabrics and hand crafted built in whitewashed oak slatted wardrobes, each containing internal sensor LED lighting. The master ensuite and second bedroom, with their hessian-coloured linens, seagrass, and wicker lampshades, have double doors overlooking the terraces, where you can watch the sun rise from your bed.

The design theme for all four bedrooms is rich linens, lush boucle fabrics, organic textures, and custom headboards, offering the very best quality and comfort for you, and perfectly positioned bohemian accessories.

Each bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with electric underfloor heating. The design aesthetic continues in these spaces, with their wet showers and custom glass doors. Samuel Heath bronze taps and showers complete the high-end designer feel of these mindful places, where the designers have introduced all the products that you need to decorate and indulge in this personal space.

Bedrooms three and four are reached via the sculptural spiral stairs in the centre of the house, allowing for a distinct level of privacy for guests or family members. The boutique hotel style continues across these guest suites with their biscuit and beach aesthetic, generous in size and practical in layout.
