Innholdsfortegnelse for September 2016 i Real Living Australia

BRING ON SPRING and welcome to our September issue – it’s always one of the most fun to put together of the whole year. For one thing it’s our birthday issue – 11 years and going strong, woo hoo! – so as always we are running a bumper competition (from page 37), with more than $60,000 worth of awesome prizes you can enter to win. In Space Crush (page 60) we take a whistle-stop trip to Rio in time for the Olympics to see an amazing building – the Niterói Contemporary Art Museum where Louis Vuitton mounted its Cruise 2017 show. We meet a bunch of clever creatives including Ryan Hanrahan (from page 47), who does beautiful work designing furniture and lighting for his company Page Thirty Three, and Dina…

THE PLANT RECIPE BOOK by BAYLOR CHAPMAN (272pp) We love this nifty title, which explains how to create living plant arrangements for indoors. The best bit is that the projects don’t require major spending – the idea is to be creative with vessels and plants you already have in your home and garden. Artisan; about $50. ALIMENTARI by LINDA & PAUL JONES (208pp ) The famous Melbourne cafe reveals the secrets behind its Mediterraneanleaning dishes. Expect colourful salads, classic mains and plenty of naughty sweets.

INTERIOR ARCHITECT MARION COLLARD MADE A FEW SIMPLE BUT KEY STRUCTURAL CHANGES TO THIS APARTMENT TO SUIT THE FAMILY WHO LIVE THERE, AND ALSO BLEND THEIR “POWERFUL” ART WITH STRONG MATERIALS. MARIONCOLLARD.COM @COLLARDMARION “Given that my clients had some very powerful and bright artworks, I tried to keep the shapes and tones quite simple but strong using marble, stone and wood,” Marion explains. She likes to contrast cold materials such as marble, concrete and glass with warm materials like wood, velvet and brass. NEW OAK CHEVRON FLOORS PAY HOMAGE TO A MORE TRADITIONAL STYLE. EXISTING MOULDINGS WERE RETAINED A DOOR SLIDES SHUT AND THE OFFICE BECOMES A GUEST BEDROOM. VOILÀ IN IMAGINING THE NEW HOME they would create in their late-19th century, 170-sq-m apartment, a couple turned some conventions on…

Turn the page for more. SO YOU’VE GOT THE KIND OF HOME that you “couldn’t swing a cat in”, as the old phrase goes. Without the luxuries of triple-figure square meterage and copious amounts of storage, working with small spaces becomes an odyssey in clever thinking – which actually makes it a lot of fun! And it all starts with a bit of visual magic. If you’re renovating and considering your options for flooring and walls, it helps to think of your small home as if it were a single room, opting for a single floor treatment in the living areas and one colour for all (or the majority of) walls, as has been done in this apartment. That way, no matter what sort of interiors style you go for,…

What attracted you to fashion? “I went to art school in Santa Barbara, California, and my limited exposure to fashion was through magazines.

SMELL IS THE OLDEST SENSE, and can trigger memory, emotion and sense of wellbeing. Your scent style – whether it’s the perfume you wear or the fragrances you use around you home – is an expression of self, much like decorating. “Be guided by what you love and it will work,” advises Erica Moore, fragrance evaluator at Fragrances of the World. If perfume was a room, what would it be? Read on… ROOM NOTES “Narciso would be a classic room,” Erica says. “Feminine, but with clean lines and a seamless, urban edge. It would feature texture, with a statement piece like a leather chair.” It’s velvety, powerful, yet delicate. NARCISO NOTES Bulgarian rose, white jasmine, powdery musk, woody notes.

IT LOOKS LIKE A MID-CENTURY MASTERPIECE BUT THE NITERÓI CONTEMPORARY ART MUSEUM IN RIO DE JANEIRO, DESIGNED BY RENOWNED ARCHITECT OSCAR NIEMEYER, WAS COMPLETED IN 1996. SOMETIMES CALLED “THE UFO”, IT WAS THE IDEAL SETTING TO SHOW DESIGNER NICHOLAS GESQUIÈRE’S SPORTY COLLECTION, WHICH WAS PERFECTLY IN TUNE WITH THE VIBRANT BRAZILIAN WAY OF LIFE. ARCHITECT OSCAR NIEMEYER WAS BRAZILIAN and became known for his use of sweeping curves. In his memoirs he wrote, “I am attracted to free-flowing, sensual curves. The curves that I find in the mountains of my country, in the sinuousness of its rivers, in the waves of the ocean, and on the body of the beloved woman.” Well said, Mr Niemeyer! SPOTTED IT!

AUSSIE home DOWN IN ISLINGTON, IN NEWCASTLE IN NSW, is a sunny little house that used to belong to Australian artist Mazie Turner. Now, her son Jasper lives there with his partner Jzhonnie and their two-year-old son Rhapsody. Jasper is a landscaper and Jzhonnie is a fashion designer, so as soon as they purchased the home, just over a year ago, they unleashed their creative skills on cosmetic changes such as painting, removing carpet, and installing new lighting and fittings. The couple then moved onto the larger jobs: a wall was knocked down to allow a more open style of living, and a second bathroom, barbecue area, fencing and landscaping were added. “Almost all our work was done in recycled materials,” Jzhonnie says. The kitchen is the family’s favourite space with…

WELCOME TO THE BONUS K&B SPECIAL KITCHENS AND BATHROOMS have long been the hardest-working rooms in the home. Because of this, they’re usually the most popular rooms to renovate, and also the biggest money-makers in terms of resale value. These days, they’re as much a style statement as they are utilitarian. Throughout these pages of the inspiring and the unusual, we’ve got need-to-know planning information to help you create the perfect space for you – because that’s the No.1 rule in renovating: create a home that works for you, and the way you live.
