PERIOD HOMES

The photos below are from a beautiful home refresh in Moorooka. Our clients, Wendy and Elize, wanted every aspect of this historic home to be carefully designed and maintained. We paid attention to preserving the original windows, woodwork, and decorative plaster, while also selecting fresh paint, furniture, wallpaper, and fabrics that bring out a nostalgic feel.

From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a warm, inviting ambiance that sets the tone for the entire home. The living room features a classic colour palette of warm umbers, deep greens golds and neutrals, with both a mix of modern and traditional furniture. We chose a stunning curved sofa for a contemporary feel, while our clients existing artwork on the walls adds a pop of colour and personality.

Our goal was to create a space that not only looks stunning but also reflects the clients' taste and respects the house's history.

My clients had a South African Heritage and eclectic taste with over 40 pieces of art that we used in our styling. With the use of subtle paint colours, wallpapers, feature lighting, soft curtains, blinds, and bespoke furnishings, it didn't take us long to see this home come to life. Always being mindful to work with the original charm and character of the home, whilst adding some modern elements.

We added a reading nook with storage in an unused space of the home, two dining rooms; one a bold and eclectic dining space for dinner parties, the other, a laid-back breakfast-style dining room. The master bedroom, included soft nude paint, flowing linen curtains, and oversize rugs for ultimate style and warmth. The living room, a salon hang of the client's existing Australian artwork, paired back with a spectacular curved and contemporary modular sofa, which is not only beautiful...but incredibly comfortable. Lastly, the kitchen received a fresh coat of paint to bring the original cupboards back to life.

We just love this gorgeous transformation and we know our clients do too - a home that is uniquely them.
