I love the colour blue, as do most people. To me it has always been Classic! Every shade of blue goes with nearly any colour. Did you know that blue represents loyalty, strength, wisdom, and trust? It is also known to have a calming effect on the psyche. I do believe this, as I associate blues with water (especially the ocean), and also the sky....

    The colour of  2020 - Classic Blue (19-4052 to be exact). Each year the "magic" colour is announced by the Pantone Colour Institute who are the experts behind not only the Pantone Colour of the year but also selecting the top seasonal runway colours, forecasting global colour trends, and advising companies on colour for product and brand visual identity...

It is that time of year when all of the interior industry showcase their 2020 design trends.  This year the interiors industry will bring a few changes in colour palettes and styles but I really believe that interiors are like art - subjective and personal to each home owner. One thing I do know though, is that sustainability and certified...

Products have included everything from pendants, cabinets, coffee tables to outdoor living settings and so much more....

Rattan, woven weave, wicker and chunky timbers are all the buzz words that are used to describe the hot outdoor living trend right now! I continue to get enquiries regarding rattan outdoor furniture, and you can see the trend on social media isn’t going anywhere! When I think of these materials, I immediately think coastal, chilled out vibe and the...

Between the months of September and November, spring will be in the air in most of Australia. People may anticipate both a dry season and a wet season during this period, but temperatures will be generally milder and more pleasant compared to the extremes throughout the rest of the year. It is also the perfect time to revel in the...

The sun is out, our Australian balmy breeze is blowing, the BBQ is spreading the most tasty aromas around the neighbourhood and you have 10 guests coming over! This is my favourite time of year, when we can eat, snooze and play all day long outside. Add Christmas, New Year's and Australia Day into the mix and it is non...

The cold weather means we notice more about what is under our feet, or should I say not under our feet. There is nothing worse than cold floorboards, tiles or concrete (even if it does look good!) on a cold winter morning. Hence, the importance of a good floor rug! And I can honestly say Tribe Home rugs are gorgeous! ...

I am a sucker for anything to do with pottery!  I wish that I knew how to make it myself and I am always looking at new designers, creatives and artisans to see what they are creating next. And, of course, I do love the pottery wheel scene in Ghost, that makes us all want to know how to use...
