The light side of Melissa Collison
Fri, 6 Jul 2012
Simple luxury and luxuriously simple. An eclectic mix of old and new whether casually elegant or out and out glam. Layers of texture and eras. Today's interior designer is Sydney-based Melissa Collison. But there was so much I loved about her portfolio I couldn't choose. What to do? I'm focussing here on the lighter side of Melissa's work. Oh don't get me wrong. I don't mean light weight. Oh no. There is nothing frothy and inconsequential about these rooms. The attention to detail, the mix of eras and the quality of finishes as well as the joy and creativity. These are happy rooms. Fresh and vibrant and young. But wait till you see Melissa's dark side.

Fantastic sense of color, and lovely play of textured surfaces. I love the bathroom tucked off the Master, hidden behind the sliding slatted screen. Thank you for sharing her work. Looking forward to seeing her darker side!!
I love the last kitchen with the stainless steel appliances. Simple but very nice. The glass doors are a really nice touch.
I believe the first bedroom is a bit too "outdoors indoors" - if you get my drift
