Studio Atelier

[I N . O U T ]
Character homes, whilst charming are known to be dark, pokey and lacking in natural light, often feeling disconnected to the outdoors.

BUT with considered planning - it doesn’t have to be this way!

Check out these four renovations/ extensions that BRING THE LIGHT IN ☀️ 🙌🏼

No matter your budget, or scale of project, having a strong indoor / outdoor connection is a must have for a Feel Good home!

Can’t get over the last image of our first ever green wall (handplanted by Jeff, myself and Jeff’s brother Nicky over 10 years ago!) 🪴☺️

WHY
✔️Enhances health & wellbeing
✔️Reflects our ‘Australian’ love of the outdoors and way of living
✔️Creates illusion of generosity / provides relief in the floorplan
✔️ Create a strong visual connection to the outdoors (making the most of even the smallest of blocks)
✔️Allows more natural light, ventilation & warmth to the home, homes feel bright, inviting and open

HOW
✔️Cleverly considered window / opening placements
✔️Considered spatial planning to ensure good flow from spaces indoors to out (ie. getting your Floor Plan right)

It all starts with getting your FLOOR PLAN right! DM us CLARITY to take the first steps towards a light, bright, feel good home.

Sneak peek!

A collaborative result between building designer, client, builder, interior designer and landscaper to bring this beautifully crafted family home in Applecross to life.

Jeff and I were honoured to have worked closely alongside this family from the get go, to craft the floor plan and exterior design for this new home build. Thrilled to see the vision come to life through the craftsmanship and refined ex*****on by alongside to beautifully layer up the interiors of the home ✨

We are big believes in the magic that comes from having a collaborative, team approach so that we can achieve the very best for our clients and families we work with and it’s such a joy to see such a considered result like this.

Focusing on indoor - outdoor connection, timeless architectural design, generous volumes and proportions and an abundance of natural light to create a welcoming contemporary family home 🫶🏼

7 years married and 16 years together - I choose you 🫶🏼

Thank you for being my biggest supporter. Not only in the big things, like running a biz, entertaining my tenth new idea for the day, keeping me grounded, raising two awesome little humans and bringing to life our .retreat adventure -

But also the million and one little things you do that go unseen - like the cups of hot coffee, reminding me to book yoga or catch up with the girls, bringing me meals when I am too busy to remember to eat, supporting me find this new version of myself post babies and an ADHD diagnosis to to mention a few…

There are times where I didn’t think our story would play out like this, which makes me even more grateful and appreciative for the love and life we share.

We truly are stronger together and I couldn’t imagine anyone else I’d want to be waking up next to, spending all day (literally side by side in the studio) and then ending the day with.

I love you x

Last year was a whirlwind and I don’t believeI got a chance to properly mention how thankful I am for the opportunity to have been awarded Designer of the Year in Hart and Co’s first ever kitchen and laundry design awards ✨✨✨

On top of this to also have our Wonnil house kitchen recognised as the winner in its category was an honour and testament to the collaborative effort to bring this project to life.

So much detail, thought and care goes into crafting beautiful, functional, and timeless kitchens that truly are the hart (pardon the pun 😅🙈) of the home. Thank you to our clients, builder and our own SA team ♥️

Thank you to Hart & Co. for celebrating WA design and bringing forth the best in innovation and technology for our clients homes.

The awards also showcased just what a talented bunch of creatives we have right here in Perth, and I’m so privileged to call many of them friends 🤍

With the awards coming up around the corner I can’t wait to see what amazing designs are brought forth by my peers and with 6 different categories, I’d encourage you to enter if you have a project that may suit!

Again big thanks all the sponsors as well as long time supporter Home Base for always championing local design.
