Inside Out November 2017의 목차

Christmas is a time for... panicking. But also joy, as well as planning, and cooking, and sipping, and sleeping. The secret is going through all those things in the right order. I’m a planner (no surprises there), but even I lose my way some weeks in December. The thing is, I like everything to be just right, and that takes time and care. To help you get on the front foot, we’ve given you loads of inspiration to have your home feeling festive. Whether you go for a more natural look, or like it luxe, Jono Fleming’s feature on page 42 will have you hanging stockings (metaphorically, obviously) in no time. Once your home looks the part with twinkling lights and a decorative flourish on the door, I promise, it’s…

THE ORIGINAL Eames Elephant by Charles & Ray Eames The form: A stylised elephant made from two moulded polypropylene parts fixed together. What makes it special? Originally developed in 1945 as a whimsical extension of the experiments the Eames Office was making with moulded plywood seating, the Elephant was one of five figures designed as a child’s toy and seat. Only two finished examples of the elephant were made in plywood. A small run of 5000 children’s chairs and tables went into production in early 1946 using much the same birch plywood and manufacturing technique, but these were only sold at limited outlets. In 2007, Vitra launched a limited edition of the plywood Elephant to celebrate what would have been Charles Eames’s 100th birthday. Vitra reproduced the 1945 design with…

1 Candles. And more candles. Preferably all in white and at different heights and widths. I love aromatic candles for this time of the year: cinnamon, vanilla, pine, woody and amber notes as well as really great quality incense and limited-edition room sprays – Jo Malone always has the most gorgeous special festive range. 2 Fairy lights are central to my festive decorating. I use lots of them: in the fireplace (December in South Africa is sizzling hot so it’s the only action the fireplace sees) and draped around the large door frame of my living room. We spend lots of time eating outdoors in summer so there are also loads of solar fairy lights in all my potted trees outside for a magical ambience. 3 Pare down colour to…

Fast forward to December 23, 6am. It’s the last shopping Saturday before Christmas and you’ve left it way too late to buy anything online so you’re heading out to your nearest shopping centre with a list of 15 people to buy for. You’re leaving at this ungodly hour as it’s the only way you’ll find a park. On the off-chance that this doesn’t sound like a whole heap of fun, you might want to take a more thoughtful approach while you still have time up your sleeve. Follow these tips and not only will you make your own life easier, you’ll also be spending your money on something that makes your favourite people happy. And that is the point of all this, after all. 1 pay attention If you listen…

Living near the ocean is an integral part of Dana and Michael’s life. After a few years in the Victorian surfing mecca of Torquay, the couple and their four children relocated to Laguna Beach in Southern California with Michael’s work, and enjoyed a blissful couple of years.When the time came to return to Australia, the couple knew they wanted to continue their coastal lifestyle, so started looking online for a property big enough to house their growing family.“We wanted to be near Torquay as we loved the surf coast area,” says Dana.“Then this house popped up and I was getting heart palpitations because I loved what I saw. But I tried not to get too excited as it was a little out of our price range so I didn’t think…

the Panel’s advice Andrew Benn Architect and director, Benn + Penna Architecture, bennandpenna.com This house has had various extensions done with no cohesive plan. My vision for this house would be to knock off the back and rebuild the extension at full width to house a new kitchen that spills out onto the garden. I’d then address the lack of light in the centre of the house by chopping out the landing to create more of a mezzanine feel, and putting a sizeable skylight above it – this would allow light to flood down the stairwell and into the living areas. With the front living areas, it would be a good idea to put up a wall to create a formal living area and let the back of the house…

Clad in white limestone with built-in cantilevered bench seats in a sunken section, this paved area of a Sydney family’s backyard, designed by Landart Landscapes, was a deliberate choice to create a different zone. Lowering the seating creates a point of interest and having steps back up to the grass area makes the space feel a little bigger. The rest of the area is clear for all manner of uses – extra space for guests when entertaining or a spot for a basketball game. Turn the page for more of this yard.…

Every year, my mother-in-law gives me genuinely terrible presents. In the nine years that I’ve been married to her son, I don’t think I’ve used a single one of them but I’m still not sure if it’s OK to re-gift though – I’m sure she puts a lot of effort into selecting them and goes to no end of expense. What’s the rule of thumb in this instance? Name and address withheld Well, I understand the withholding of your particulars, since you’ve just thrown open one of the most incendiary issues of the festive season.To re-gift or not to re-gift, as Hamlet surely said when he delved into his Christmas stocking and pulled out a brocade doublet that wasn’t his colour and a sword cleaning set he already has two…

Q I’d like to engage an architect for an upcoming reno; do you have any guidance on how to brief them to get the best result? Daniel, via email Great communication is critical to the success of any renovation, so first and foremost, owners should ask themselves if they feel comfortable talking with their architect. Does the communication seem open, easy and honest? Are they on your page, so to speak? After those initial conversations, which are often quite casual, I would suggest putting critical aspects of your brief in writing – like a more formal agreement that can be referred to later. It’s also important not to overburden your design briefs with prescriptive outcomes. A good brief should challenge your architect to think creatively about the project’s potential –…

There are two kinds of wine lovers. On one hand are the people who swirl, sniff and sip, picking up the velvety, toasty notes. And then there’s the rest of us: we take a swig and decide if it’s a good drop based purely on the enjoyment factor. “There is no right or wrong when it comes to tasting wine,” says Jagdev Singh, co-founder of wine curation business, The Local Drop. “Taste is personal, so preface everything you say with: ‘To me, this wine is…’ “Once you understand the basic lingo, describing what you’re tasting adds to the experience and gives you a better understanding of what you do and don’t like,” says Jag. At the end of the day, it’s all about finding something that suits your palate, just…

Ilan, what inspired you to go into lighting design? I had been working as an interior designer for a few years and was orchestrating a total design project: a contemporary Japanese restaurant. My work encompassed the layout, furniture and the finishes, right through to the logo, menu and website, and ultimately the lighting. That was the first time I needed to design a luminaire so, like any other project, I dived in headfirst and learnt as much as possible. The most important thing I realised back then is that unlike any other object, luminaires have two states of existence: on and off. When off, it’s just another object in the space but when turned on, it comes to life and in turn lights our lives. It was literally a light-bulb…

Never before has The Block done anything like this – practically a whole living quarters above the garages of these four bedroom family homes. What a game changer! The brief was left fairly open and the contestants had an important decision to make. Add a bedroom to the list and jump in the market as a five bedder, or offer the space as an office – or is it a matter of a little from column A and a little from column B? Whichever path they’ve chosen, these Blockheads are sure to clean up come auction time. HOUSE 1 JASON & SARAH The comeback king and queen have delivered their studio apartment in style. Though their garage and stairway lacks everything from plasterboard to paint, the bathroom and bedroom-cum-study is…

palette-perfect wrapping Gifts have been presented in a mix of brown and graphic wrapping paper with black ribbon, as well as traditional South African shweshwe fabric and African wax cloth fabric in the same tones.

the story so far Caroline and Adam had been looking for a family home for almost a year after moving back to Sydney from Canberra. As time wore on and they saw their budget being stretched further and further, the couple were feeling a little despondent when they came to view this Victorian terrace a short stroll from Balmain’s high street. “It was love at first sight,” says Caroline. “We loved the location and the period features. And the space seemed vast after four of us sharing a tiny rental for 12 months.” But it’s not a happy ending just yet. The previous owner lived here for many years and while the house is perfectly livable, Caroline and Adam are keen to make it work better for their busy family…

According to icecream.com, Australia is one of the top five ice-cream consuming countries in the world, so it makes sense that lots of us are investing in a machine to create our favourite flavours at home. Today’s appliances are convenient and fuss-free, and might just save you some significant ice-cream outlay over the summer. And it’s not just ice-cream: think frozen yoghurt, gelato and sorbet, too. Before you hit the shops, however, allow us to introduce you to the two main types of ice-cream makers. pre-frozen bowl machines Many ice cream makers work using a freezer bowl, which needs to be frozen for up to 24 hours before using. If you have space in your freezer, you can keep the bowl there permanently for when the urge strikes. Once you’ve…

Q Hi Peter, “HELP! I am in an ongoing battle with my wardrobe – and it’s not looking good. I have no idea where to start. Any advice you can give me would be hugely appreciated!” Bernadette, Williamstown, Vic A Hi Bernadette. Without doubt, when it comes to clutter problems, the most common complaint I hear is ‘my wardrobe is getting out of control’.
