We acknowledge the Gubbi Gubbi people, the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we live. We pay our respects to Elders, past and present of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nations.

I’ve been doing a lot of reading lately on the imp I’ve been doing a lot of reading lately on the impacts of overusing social media and technology, and it’s been confronting in ways I didn’t expect. 

When tech is so deeply embedded in our work lives, it becomes even harder to recognise just how much time we spend online. 

With the holiday break approaching, we’ve put together a list of practical tips that may help if you’re hoping to step back from your phone, emails, socials and screens... even just a little.
Welcome to our home—my son’s and my little slice o Welcome to our home—my son’s and my little slice of paradise. Take a wander through this carousel of my favourite moments from this year, beautifully captured by one of my favourite photographers, @creative.mediahouse.

Since moving in back in 2014, I’ve been doing the place up slowly, one or two jobs each year. All year long I save, chip away at the never-ending restoration to-do list, and then spend my Christmas holidays tackling whatever project is next.

This year, the list is looking a little lighter; I have just a few small jobs in mind. It might finally be the year I spend more time at the beach and the farm instead! (I think I’ve had enough menty b’s for one year.) 🤣

Swipe all the way to the end to see the state the house was in when I bought it. It honestly feels like a miracle to now have a home I’m proud of… but sometimes miracles just take some hard work and time. ✨

P.S. I am so thankful for everyone (trades and friends) who have worked with me on my house… I think we’re up in the hundreds now of people who have helped me on it!
It’s been one year since I first started doing up It’s been one year since I first started doing up our new studio... and boy has it been a very, mighty year! So grateful to all our brand partners who helped me pull this new studio together last Christmas holidays. This humble space has transformed the way we work and I can’t wait to add more character and creativity to it next year.

Come behind the scenes on install day for one our Come behind the scenes on install day for one our styling projects we completed this year!

You’d be surprised by just how many moving parts go into pulling a project like this together; from mood boards and room mock-ups, to furniture sourcing, custom artwork, and a delivery and install schedule timed down to the minute. It’s quite an art! 

More to come in 2026!

A highlight this year has been working for @zone1p A highlight this year has been working for @zone1projects to look after the styling and creative direction of the shoot of their latest completed build, Stanley.

A project of this scale involves months of thoughtful preparation; a LOT of coordination, hundreds of emails, and curating objects and soft furnishings that bring depth and character to a home that is (in all honesty) already a masterpiece.

If you’ve been with us for a while, you’ll know how passionate we are about championing local artisans in every project. A special thanks to @houndandclay and @nioka.clay for supplying some of the most beautiful ceramic pieces. 

You’ll get a glimpse of some of the stunning, high-end linen used in the shoot supplied by @halemercantile, other beautiful design pieces from @trit.house and artwork from @studiogallerygroup. 

We’ll be sharing more of this home over the coming weeks, but for now, take a look at our shoot day prep!

As a boutique styling and creative direction studi As a boutique styling and creative direction studio, we’re fortunate to have a beautiful, steady rhythm of projects; both the ones we’re currently immersed in and those we’re dreaming up for the future.

That said, we have now opened our 2026 calendar for February and March! If you’ve been considering working with us for your interiors, socials, or an upcoming photo shoot, we’d love to chat.

Reach out, even just for a conversation, as our calendar openings don't tend to stay available for long. 🤎
