LA designer Gabrielle Aker “founded Aker Interiors with the innate belief that the spaces we inhabit greatly impact us. The power of beauty and the feeling of home is deeply consequential to the way we live, affecting our emotional, spiritual, & physical selves.” Interiors are highly personalized, a marriage of the client’s individuality and the studio’s eye for detail none more so than their stylish Chelsea project.

This Victorian Terrace in Sydney’s Darlinghurst blends tranquillity with vibrancy. It’s both a serene sanctuary and a lively hub for music and gatherings. The design aimed for a minimalist stage for life’s theatre, balancing privacy with everyday living. Collaborative planning ensured every item found its place, creating an emptied vessel. The core idea was to design with a respect for empty space. Skylit voids mimic ceramic vessels, casting changing light and mood. Heritage meets contemporary with landscaped courtyards, while brick and timber textures define spaces. Embracing emptiness, the design reveals joy and meaning in simplicity. Vessel by Madeleine Blanchfield Architects.

It’s like I save week in week out. If you have to drag yourself into work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere super stylish. Farage Headquarters by Greg Natale.

A sense of elegance and history but with a casual and dramatically dark twist. I absolutely love this home designed by Studio Seiders. That kitchen is sooooo fabulous – not a white countertop or white cabinet in sight! SOOOO HOT! Architecture: 787 designstudio; Styling: Adam Forner; Photos: Lindsay Brown Taunton.

“Transforming a c. 1930s beachside bungalow through the large scale renovation our clients had long dreamed of was a joyful experience. We curated a team of professionals to create a seamless multi generational home. The house is now a haven for a family of five united by a love of entertaining and celebrating life’s milestones.”

The house, with panoramic views of Bronte Beach, lacked architectural cohesion after a hodgepodge of previous renovations. Interior designer Jillian Dinkel added character and soul, embracing a modern Australian beach house aesthetic with oak, viola marble, and aged brass accents.
