Inspiration

There are many historical buildings around Sydney, but one that always captures my attention is Vaucluse House, nestled in the southern headland of Sydney Harbour and overlooking the secluded cove of Beach Paddock.

The best of architectural shed living is epitomised by The Wensley, a wonderful example of recycled timber done right. Tucked away on 80 acres in Wensleydale you almost wouldn’t know this luxury rustic stay is there, yet the house’s grand structure is revealed once you have driven through a tunnel of eucalypts, with all its sides covered in timber at varying stages of silvering off and floor to ceiling windows, hinting at the exceptional vistas to be viewed from every room within.

With so many exciting products launching in July of this year, it was necessary to dream up a shoot to showcase the lovely new things coming to The Society inc Range plus some old favourites. The stars so aligned that my photographer friend Mikkel Vang was in town and we teamed up to do a shoot and create a Captain’s Cabin.

I inherited a very plain kitchen, & although the materials used were not to my taste, they provided a great backdrop and I was able to manipulate and layer the space to cater to my cooking needs & lifestyle.

Nestled down a country road in Shropham, Norfolk UK with sunny wheat on one side and forest on the other lies a magical property that is home to Settle. Owned, imagined and beautifully executed by John & Jo, this romantic stay consists of 2 canvas tents with petite pot belly stoves, a lake cabin and 3 repurposed train carriages set in lush woodlands that feel as though you have stepped into a nostalgic Enid Blyton novel.
