Inspiration Disney...

Faced with the task of designing a bedroom for a four year old this week, I searched for inspiration. Without resorting to current, modern themes or trends I turned back the clock.... to the 40's! Vintage Disney imagery was my lucky find - the gorgeous style and colors of original Walt Disney childrens books caught my imagination. I've always loved the look of vintage Disney memorabilia, and have my own collection of 1950's Disney figurines in my office. The talent and creativity of the original Disney artists was truly inspirational.

Collecting...

Next week, on my travels, I'll be collecting... inspirations! Images, visual treats, eye candy; things that make me stop, and look. Visual inspirations can be an important factor in begining (or finishing) a design. That little detail that everything builds from or that completes the picture... I'll be adding something every week so, stay tuned.

Bedroom in order...

A bedroom, recently completed in my Sassafras home. Simple, furnishings and classic decorating motifs - Perfect!

Rennovating...

This week, I'm rennovating! My home, in Melbournes Dandenong Ranges, is slowly being transformed into my idea of a classic hills residence. With period detailing, authentic furishings and vintage fittings, I'm creating my vision. I've always been an anti-modernist, especially when it comes to interior design, and my home will be a showcase for my classic interior style.
