West Bend House, located on a lush site in the Melbourne suburb of Northgate, offers stunning views of the wildlife belt and onto the city. MRTN Architects designed the home and Brave New Eco handled the interiors for a family of five. The house is fully electric with sustainable features like solar power and rainwater tanks. Custom joinery and detailed interiors, including a timber kitchen, plush living room, and functional study, were crafted with the clients’ needs in mind, creating a warm, practical, and beautiful living space.

I am completely in awe and frankly quite jealous of these spaces in a 1920s Tudor home designed by Whittney Parkinson. You’ve got a spacious kitchen with gorgeous cabinetry & countertops & arched tiled wall & a statement hood fan situation with a gem of a butler’s pantry, a mudroom and laundry room that are so functional but also soooo stylish, and a pile of bathrooms that have such pretty details, never mind that one of them looks larger than my living room. *GASP*


















As much as I love colour and pattern, the soothing vibes of a totally neutral home like this Edwardian 6 bedroom house in rural Sussex also tugs at my heartstrings. I also thought I was completely over the lime washed walls craze but it’s soooo perfect in this home these folks get a pass. Available as a location home via Shoot Factory.

























Jillian Dinkel Interior Design revamped the interiors of a beautifully preserved Victorian Italianate terrace house for a professional couple and their children … and it’s all the clients’ love of pink. The designers prioritized preserving the interior architecture while integrating modern joinery and conveniences. The Woollahra terrace, built in 1891, offered a rare experience of stepping into a century-old home with well-preserved grand architectural elements. Named Tarella, its ornate cornices, stone fireplaces, and spacious front rooms provided a luxurious canvas for the design. The formal floor plan includes a sitting room, library and a generous primary suite with a walk-in wardrobe. A powder room with Memphis-inspired burgundy cabinetry was added on the entry level, mirroring the laundry and family bathroom design. Marble and bronze touches throughout create a sophisticated, textured look.















“This renovation was to provide a beautiful first home for a young couple. The clients wanted bright, refined and elegant colours paired with accents of natural timber to add some warmth back into the space. Our goal was to increase the sense of space in the apartment as well as bring more light into their living areas.”
