Inside Out April 2023의 목차

Working in the residential building and renovation sector is a great place to be for lots of reasons, but mainly because Australians are so obsessed with the idea of home, and making places and spaces to not just inhabit but to really live in. That kind of market force helps to foster an industry of future thinkers who are dynamic and creative, able to design and manufacture beautiful products and pieces that deliver comfort and beauty as well as address the increasing challenges of materials, energy, waste and budget. In this issue, we’ve pulled together a portfolio of amazing local design talent doing just that – making incredible things that are sustainable, clever and beautiful. Please turn to Discoveries on page 27 to meet some of the most impressive Australians…

scene setting Think purple palms and pink flamingos Melburnians Belinda and Tristan Alexander loved their time in west-coast America so much that they brought the look home with them – literally.

The temptation to renovate or build on your own might be strong, but is it wise? Those who hire a designer or collaborate with an interior expert know the value of such a move. Here, Mardi Doherty, the award-winning interior designer and founder of Melbourne’s Studio Doherty, presents the pros. Why exactly should a person engage a great interior designer for their build? To get a considered approach to the project, and a different perspective. Interior designers are problem solvers with an innate sense of style and aesthetic – a skill they use to think outside the box and utilise interior space more functionally, so creating something you hadn’t expected is often the outcome. We can also increase the value of your home, as engaging a good interior designer can…

sculpted garden A tree shapes up as the centrepiece Little wonder the cartoon-like Queensland bottle tree is such a firm favourite with the owners of this Sydney garden by Trystan Graham of Sydney’s Outdoor Establishments.

Having affordable quality products is the biggest driving force in a thriving interiors business, according to Alice McMullin of homewares and furniture company McMullin & co. “And also, not having to follow a trend,” she quickly adds. “I just work from what we think is a great product and go with it. We don’t have that attitude of, you’ve got to do a collection where everything looks the same. It should be items that you can pair with each other so they tell a story.” Alice’s venture into the design world started after a trip to Indonesia, where she purchased pieces to sell back home. Before long, she was designing her own items and McMullin & co was born. “We had upholsterers next to us and I thought, ‘Oh, we…

Alove of the bottle – the Queensland bottle tree, that is – inspired the design of this sculptural garden on Sydney’s upper North Shore. Two mature specimens, their elegant canopies in quirky contrast to the bulbous trunks, grace the front and the back; one ushers visitors to the front door, while the other provides the perfect spot for the owners to pause and soak up their surroundings. The couple bought the property in 2017, because of the calm, leafy neighbourhood, but, most importantly, its level block, “which would allow us to build a home that was useable and easy for my wife and me [to live in] as we got older,” says the owner. After bulldozing the original house, in 2020 they presented Trystan Graham of Outdoor Establishments with a…

cheat sheet Who lives here A professional couple with four children aged 11 to 20. Style of home An updated five-bedroom house with Art Deco features. Location Sydney’s eastern suburbs, traditional land of the Bidjigal and Gadigal peoples. The renovation took 10 months, from August 2019 to June 2020. When the owners bought this luminescent P&O-style home in Sydney’s eastern suburbs in 2016, they were wooed by its sweeping curves and svelte steel windows, but the layout left them marooned. Looking for a solution, they explored various ports of call with architects Potter & Wilson before reaching this idyllic destination. “I was confronted with a labyrinth of rooms and convoluted circulation, which created dark, enclosed areas with no connection to the garden,” says Potter & Wilson principal Imogene Potter. “A…

cheat sheet Who stays here Richard and Emily Young plus their children: Annabel, 21, Edwina, 18, and Audrey, 14. Style of home A completely overhauled three-bedroom 1960s beach house. Location Emu Bay on the north coast of Kangaroo Island in South Australia, traditional land of the Ramindjeri, Kaurna, Ngarrindjeri and Barngalla nations. The year-long renovation took place in 2018. For Emily Young and her husband Richard, the story of their family is deeply tied to Emu Bay on South Australia’s Kangaroo Island – a holiday spot governed by tides, sunsets and simple pleasures such as fishing, swimming and the art of the afternoon snooze. This is also the location of their longtime holiday home, a 1960s beach ‘shack’ called Hamilton House, which was renovated from top to bottom in 2018.…

LOOKING GOOD Selecting rods and tracks Whether your curtain hardware is a complementary accent or designed to make a bold statement, it can enhance the overall finish, says Vera Meharg, marketing communications manager at Luxaflex Window Fashions. “Curtain hardware can create a different look and feel for the space based on the window design and architectural requirements of the home,” she explains. The choice of track and rod may also depend on the heading style of the curtain, whether it’s a double-pinch pleat, triple-pinch pleat, inverted pleat, pencil pleat or wave fold. “For example, Luxaflex’s U-Track is a minimalist option for a discreet and unobtrusive look that complements modern and traditional architecture,” says Vera. “It pairs well with a heading style such as the very popular S-wave. A rod track…

We chat to online rug retailer Alexandra Tanya Weller (shown with French bulldog Gigi). What do you look for when choosing rugs for a kitchen? Practicality is key. Fibre and construction are the elements to carefully select. But I would also consider tone – what materials and elements do you have in the space? The rug can be the anchor to bring the whole look together. Which materials are the best? Something stain-resistant and durable like polypropylene, or anything indoor-outdoor like a PET rug made from recycled bottles. Those fibres have come such a long way and can be made to feel soft and luxurious. How do you ensure a kitchen rug stays in great shape? I recommend an underlay – the kitchen gets a lot of foot traffic and…
