Do you find your mood drops in winter? What about in dark rooms? I feel instantly lower in energy in dark spaces. And I’m a miserable sod in winter.

Here in Australia, we are blessed with larger homes than our European counterparts, which affords us a dedicated room solely for the purpose of laundry. But the rise of inner-city apartments and the cost of living has put a spotlight on small footprint living and in some cases, forced these micro spaces into existence.

I get so over stuff. I work with stuff, I specify stuff, I source, collate, install, style and photograph stuff. What I really love, is a clean slate.

Living in a small home can be a challenging position. Add to that children and limited storage, and you have a situation where the home can become more chaos than harmony.

We were having a giggle in the office this week over our ‘beigeness’. If there’s such a term, we’re pretty much the queens of it when it comes to interiors. And its not to be bland and boring, or safe as a palette; its that it truly makes us happy.
