Spring love....


Who says it is spring? This week seems to feeling a little more like summer here in Brisbane. I am loving that the hydrangeas are out and are as gorgeous as ever; although they probably will not last long in our heat but I am enjoying the addition of one at the Oliveaux shop front this week.

I am also loving this new collection of fabrics and wallpaper...the colours and patterns are divine!

A layered home


This eye-catching design is very comfortable and welcoming, an antique table, contemporary art and a beautiful armchair provides a wonderful corner to the homes living room. I thought this home was a lovely Tuesday morning distraction....

To me the living room feels like somewhere I could pop a drink down and relax without feeling too nervous. I love the collection of global fabrics in various textures and patterns.

The timeless white kitchen cabinetry is broken up beautifully with the blue subway tiles.

The custom built shelves behind the beds allows this boy a place to store all his treasures!

The antique maps which has been applied to one of the bedroom walls add's character against the red chairs.

Whimsical fabrics...


We always love finding gorgeous new fabrics at Oliveaux. These beautiful screen printed, certified organic fabrics are designed by Tara Davy for her new collection which is now available from Kelani Fabrics. We think her whimsical hot balloon design is very cute and even better we love to support Australian made products at Oliveaux.

Beautiful blue wallpaper and fabrics....

I thought I would give you a sneak preview of some really lovely wallpapers and fabrics which I am looking forward to using on some upcoming projects. This collection is a breath of fresh air, classic and timeless colour combinations perfect for our Queensland homes. I absolutely adore how the wallpaper has been used on this ceiling!

Loving...


The latest book to make it's way into my library is Joe Nye's Flair, a book of inspirational ideas and details which would make any event spectacular. This gorgeous chair makes such a wonderful statement in the entry designed by Nye. I always love his use of fabrics and colour. So after enjoying his book I have revisited some of his rooms from my files I love....

fabulous colours and fabrics are used in this raspberry and blue L.A living room...

Today....



Well this week has just flown by so quickly and I cannot believe it is already Friday! It has been another short working week here in Brisbane as Monday was a public holiday. I really could get used to working a four day week. I thought I would share some of the things on my desk today...Firstly, I am so excited that A-M's house along with Oliveaux has been featured in this month's Home Beautiful magazine. If you are a subscriber I am sure you will have already seen it....if not it is out on Monday!


Otherwise my desk is covered in lots of gorgeous fabrics and wallpaper samples which I am putting together for a few different projects I am working on at the moment...


Hope you all have a wonderful Friday....Ax
