Hermon & Hermon VIP Evening

I attended a function at H&H last night, supported by Inside Out Magazine. Great night of shopping and catching up with friends and other designers in the industry. The H&H showroom looked amazing as always, it was a good night.

Eaglemont Project : 4

Work continues in Eaglemont, the footings for the familyroom / kitchen area progressing well....

2012 Colour Run

Wow, what a fun morning. If you can, make sure you do the colour run next year, it was loads of fun. Lots of dancing, some running and mostly walking and having a ball. Get a group together and enjoy, we did.
As you can see, we started off clean and white... all 12000 of us and finished in technicolour.... Over $75,000 raised for the Para Olympic committee.

Running for Colour

This will be me on Sunday, a group of family and friends participating in the first Melbourne Colour Run.
We will run/walk/dance "The Happiest 5km on the Planet’ and be showered in coloured powder, raising  funds for the Australian Paralympic Committee

We all decided it was a great warm up to our India trip as we will be there for the Holi festival. Can't wait to post pic's on Monday.

Kravet - Jonathan Adler

Saw a great new collatoration with Kravet and US designer Jonathan Adler yesterday. The collection reflects Adler’s colorful approach to design with linen and velvet featuring bright colors, modernist forms, bold graphic patterns and embroidery. Geometric, abstract and contemporary linear patterns, in a range of both vivid colors and neutrals. I'm not saying I could live with a room designed top to toe in these prints but as accents they are fabulous....

Window Display

Changed over the window display yesterday. Great retro chairs designed by my clever upholsterer in an WOW Zinc velvet, work well with the amazing Christian Lacroix fabric from Radfords. Change is as good as a holiday as they say....boy looking forward to the holiday. No break this year....hanging for my trip to India next year....

Where are the weeks going?
Friday was a busy afternoon of blind and curtains installation, back to back.
All went to plan, happy clients and great window treatments.

Harlequin Designs

I was out sourcing at fabric houses this morning and had to snap this amazing chair on display @ Domestic Textiles. From the lastest Harlequin range, it looks amazing and is super comfy....great wallpaper in the background and the lampshade is the same shade as the bedside lamps by Mum has when I was young....

Emirates Marquee

The inspiration for the Emirates marquee @ Flemington this year was all things Irish and it looks amazing.

Great video HERE , of the installation process in timelapse.

Book wishlist

Plenty of new books on offer on the leadup to Christmas.... but I can't wait until then to order these three.
