The Art Studio

Posted on Tue, 23 Apr 2024 by KiM

A quaint addition to the iconic Spray Farm Estate (Victoria’s Bellarine Peninsula), The Art Studio purposefully and eloquently invites artistic inspiration from the first step inside. Architecturally referencing details of the original homestead, our interior choices were sympathetic to the surrounding landscape, minimalist in design, abundant in high quality craftsmanship and technically executed for practicality.
I may not be an artist per se but WHOA would working at my current government day job virtually and working on this blog from a space like this would be a dream come true. And I thought my greenhouse was a decent outdoor space to work from…

Country homes by Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler

Posted on Mon, 15 Apr 2024 by KiM

I am really just posting all of these photos as an excuse to feature the one above. That chair upholstered in quilt fabrics is just about the cutest and covetable thing I have ever seen. Photos from several country homes designed by the always inspiring Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler. (Some photos by Simon Upton)

“A full interior and exterior renovation of a c.1905 federation cottage and converted stables outbuilding. The extensive renovation aims to blur the line between old and new, original and reinterpreted. Respecting its federation past, the renovation provides a contemporary overlay that honours decorative ornamentation and materials familiar to the federation era. Interior colour, decoration and furniture selections were inspired by the extensive collection of art painted by our client over a number of years. “

Quintessentially English

Posted on Thu, 21 Mar 2024 by midcenturyjo

Both Taline Findlater and Victoria Gray of London and Oxfordshire-based interior design studio Olivine Design share a passion for layering texture, colour and pattern bringing an effortless, elegant comfort to the scheme. Their work on this house is a perfect example of what I call the quintessentially English look with its appreciation for architectural detail, light and proportion and a natural decorative flair.

Living large in Malibu

Posted on Wed, 20 Mar 2024 by KiM

Another fabulous project by the ladies of Pierce & Ward. It is a maximalist’s dream home filled with fun shapes and lots of vintage art and adorable kitchen and bathrooms. And it is also goes to show what photographers will do during post-processing (to the extent that you think you’re looking at a different room).
