Recently we shared the 1870s church turned family home of Sarah Hall. Now, it’s her sister and business partner at Read&Hall Emma Read’s turn!
Located in Willunga, the same small town on South Australia’s Fleurieu Peninsula, Emma’s home is an equally charming bungalow, shared with her husband Matt Read, and children Tuesday 13, Reggie 10, and Abel, 7.
The family have slowly renovated this house over the past 12 years, introducing more natural light and incredible vintage finds along the way. Every item has a story, all of which add to the home’s unique character.
With all the craziness in the world right now, escaping to an idyllic country cottage with a stocked bookshelf in Victoria’s relaxation capital sounds mighty attractive. Here to fill that void is Poets Lodge – a newly opened accommodation in Daylesford.
Purchased in 2017 as a dilapidated 1850s house and cottage, wife and husband team Angeline and Richard O’Bryan have since fully restored both properties, and added a new but thoroughly sympathetic third component.
The maximalist yet personal feel of Leila Sanderson and sound engineer Tony Espie‘s South Yarra apartment is something that can only be achieved over a long period of time… 12 years to be exact!
Leila and Tony have filled the art deco space with plenty of contrasting colour, ribbon rosettes made by Leila (aka Skinny, owner of Skinny Wolf), and foliage from her florist work with Katie Marx.
It’s a heartwarming space, which celebrates the history and style of its original architecture. And would you believe, it’s a rental?!
