Flack Attack! Star designer's Brunswick Home just listed

One of Melbourne's most creatively imagined homes has hit the market, and it belongs to none other than David Flack, founder of the acclaimed Flack Studio.

Flack rose to global design fame following the striking transformation of pop superstar Troye Sivan's Carlton home, which earned him a coveted spot on Architectural Digest's AD100 list in 2022.

Since then, he's become the go-to designer for a host of Australian celebrities , including comedian Andy Lee and his fiance Rebecca Harding, who tapped Flack Studio to breathe new life into their crumbling Hawthorn mansion, Ravenswood.

He's also collected a string of accolades along the way, from an IDEA (Interior Design Excellence Award) to Vogue Living's Creative of the Year at the VL50.

Now, Flack is offering up one of his own, a picture-perfect Victorian terrace at 7 Howard Street, Brunswick.

Meticulously reimagined by Flack and his partner Jason Olive, the home blends period charm with bold, contemporary detailing, the kind of work that's become Flack Studio's signature.

Inside, the two-bedroom, one-bathroom residence is packed with character and craftsmanship.

The original bones of the 1901 cottage remain, think soaring ceilings, exposed brick and beautiful Baltic pine floors, but have been elevated with rich colour, custom textures, and high-impact flourishes.

"The house embraces the unique exposed brick walls, original Baltic pine floorboards, and heritage features throughout," Flack told The Design Files.

"Our interventions of materials are a balance between warm, natural, and muddy tones, scorched almond, camel, olive, white pepper, accented with punchy glossy red openings and transitions painted."

The kitchen is a highlight, where handmade Italian terracotta tiles meet creamy quartzite benchtops and a striking red steel portal connecting to the dining area.

A picture window offers a leafy view to the garden, the perfect place to curl up with a book or enjoy a quiet morning coffee.

The bathroom is equally considered, layered with blue marble floors, fluted glass, Venetian plaster, and a custom stainless-steel vanity, all gently lit by a handmade sconce.

A nearby powder room continues the same moody elegance, complete with polished plaster and subtle metallics.

Other features include solar power, hydronic and underfloor heating, air conditioning, wool carpets, high-end hardware, and a lushly landscaped garden, complete with an outdoor shower.

A rear laneway provides private parking, but with cafés, trams, Anstey Station, Sydney Road and Lygon Street all within walking distance, you'll barely need a car.

With renovation costs soaring, Flack says this home offers something rare: a ready-made, designer-crafted sanctuary.

The property is listed with a price guide of $1.4 million to $1.5 million and is set to go under the hammer on Saturday, June 21 at 1:00pm.
