Orton Haus | Newcastle

Positioned directly opposite Bar Beach in Newcastle, Orton Haus is a family home with interiors by interior designer Justine Orton, and built alongside her husband Luke Orton of ORTN. The project reflects a shared focus on thoughtful design, craftsmanship and everyday family living. For Justine, good design goes beyond aesthetics. Every interior decision, from the material palette through to the smallest details, is made with consideration for how a family will gather, connect and live within a space.

The film explores the home as a whole, capturing the relationship between architecture, interiors and environment. Natural light, warm materials and carefully considered finishes create a home that feels calm, welcoming and connected to its coastal setting.

Commissioned by Phoenix Tapware, the project provided an opportunity to document a home created for the way modern Australian families live, balancing beauty, functionality and a strong sense of purpose.
