23.01.2022 Talk about the holiday lifestyle at home! Were in awe of this lush outdoor living space created by Adam Robinson | #coteinspiringinteriors | spotted House & Garden| photography Natalie Hunfalvay

23.01.2022 Lulu nailing the holiday lifestyle Relaxed, comfortable, without a care in the world... Who wants to feel like Lulu?

23.01.2022 The Holiday Lifestyle at Home Ive spent some quiet time thinking about what were really good at, what we love to do and how to summarise that succinctly. And... Ive nailed it! At Cote, we create the holiday lifestyle at home.... I live and breathe the holiday lifestyle. From having grown up on a tropical island in the Caribbean to travelling to dream destinations around the globe, Ive stayed in inspiringly beautiful resorts, been on countless adventures, and sipped many cocktails at sunset. And Ive become an expert at bringing all of that amazing inspiration, as well as the relaxed, easy breezy feeling home with me. I believe everyone should live a life that feels like holiday and our homes are where it all begins. Whether through a full house renovation or the smallest styling detail, I help our clients craft their very own oasis through interiors that exude laidback luxury and the holiday lifestyle. #coteholidaylifestyle #styledbycote | photography The Palm Co See more

23.01.2022 Cruising into the weekend, feeling like @kiahstudios picture perfect print from Byron, where else? We discovered each other on this very platform and immediately connected over all things holiday lifestyle and coastal beauty. Thrilled to have featured her stunning work in the styling of our upcoming video (so soon!) and weve been plotting some fun collaborations too! Check out @kiahstudio to be transported to paradise #coteartistcrush

22.01.2022 Tiles This bathroom at @barefootescapes is a beauty! Designed by @thedesignory - were loving their use of curves, timber and most of all their tile selection!! These handmade green zellige tiles feel luxe yet organic - perfect for the holiday lifestyle at this getaway #coteinspiringinteriors

22.01.2022 Today we’re saying goodbye to the cutest little house in Manly We have loved living here for the better part of 3 years! It holds so many memories and a special place in Cote’s history. It is in #cocoscabana that I had my very first photoshoot, launched my business and grew it to what it is today. I’ll miss the charming weatherboards and surrounding mini jungle - talk about #coteholidaylifestyle! But I am so thrilled to start our next chapter in a home we finally get to really call our own. Here’s to reflecting back with gratitude and looking forward with excitement! @ Manly Beach, Sydney Australia

22.01.2022 Natural textures throw from @inthesaclinen | #styledbycote #coteholidaylifestyle

22.01.2022 WFH This is my new office for the moment. Youll find me set up on my laptop with a cup of tea and Lulu at my feet (or on my lap - depending how needy shes feeling!) While its not quite business as usual, Im still working away - designing & planning projects - but this space and time is truly inspiring me to create something new. Despite the uncertainty and fear happening in the world, I feel lit up to help more people love the homes their spendin...g so much time in. I want to make design and the holiday lifestyle at home more accessible, so Im working away in the back end to develop a new way of doing things at Cote. Lets just say, Ill have a lot more to share very soon! #cotecomingsoon #styledbycote | photography @elinbandmannphotography See more

22.01.2022 On my mood board @barrenjoeyhousepalmbeach #beforecorona #coteholidaylifestyle

20.01.2022 You guys loved our last 3D render, so I thought Id share another! Here you can see how the brass wall lights look against the texture of the ocean-hued grasscloth wallpaper in the Master Bedroom. You can imagine the clients existing art above our custom designed fluted oak dresser.... And you start to understand how the mix of materials (linen, leather, timber, wool) relate to one another to bring beautiful balance. 3D renders are truly one of my favourite tools to help clients see the vision for their home come to life #designedbycote #coteholidaylifestyle | renders by @maeandco__ See more

18.01.2022 Stocking up for locking down #styledbycote | photography @elinbandmannphotography

18.01.2022 Australia Having not grown up here, I definitely had some preconceived notions about what this country looked like. It was either glossy images of Bondi Beach or wide shots of the red earth outback. That was it. It has been incredible to learn about the diversity of this land over the past 3.5 years.... Ive come to appreciate the wide array of unique flora and fauna. Im constantly inspired by the colours ranging from the vibrant yellow of wattle trees to the subtle green grey of gum leaves. I love how quickly it can all change in a short drive or flight! And, while I now recognise the massive range of this beautiful country, I have to say I havent felt more like I was in Australia until walking through this valley in the Blue Mountains with gumtree covered peaks looming and the sun catching the red rock escarpments. We were surrounded by kangaroos in the hundreds munching on yellow-green grass. We spotted wombats and dingoes, cockatoos and kookaburras. Even an elusive platypus! The temperature changed from blustery winter to strip-off-your-jacket summer in the matter of an hour. It was stunning. It was awe-inspiring. It was Australia as I have come to know and love her! @peterktully @ Wolgan Valley See more

17.01.2022 Cosy thats how well be feeling this Easter long weekend. Nowhere to be and nothing to do (and not really allowed to leave the house). #styledbycote | photography @the.palm.co

16.01.2022 Were thrilled to be featured in this months @homebeautiful! Swipe to see our top tips for transforming your spare room into a multipurpose space. Thanks for including us alongside @emma.blomfield & @laurenkeenanhome. Next up a full feature! @ Sydney, Australia

15.01.2022 Nothing transports you into the holiday lifestyle quite like tropical wallpaper While theyve been popular for sometime now, Im loving the fresh new iterations and colourways like this beauty from @catherinemartindesigns. I just recommended it this week for a barn turned pool cabana on a rural farm! The earthy tones will pick up on the landscape while the aqua will be perfect adjacent to the pool. Love seeing how well it works with wicker in @sisterhoodhobart designed by @biasoldesign. #coteinspiringinteriors | photography @adam.gibson.photo | spotted @mokumstudio @ Sisterhood Hobart

15.01.2022 Design at a distance Like many small businesses, were adapting to the new world we are living in. Were figuring out how we can help as many people as possible create a home that feels like an oasis amidst the current chaos. We are taking all of our services online and creating a whole new offering to make it even easier to create the holiday lifestyle at home! And, while weve never formally offered digitally based design, its actually nothing new for us. See that little slice of paradise ? We did the bulk of the design work from 13,000km (8600 miles) away! More to come soon #coteholidaylifestyle #designedbycote | photography @haydeelustudio

14.01.2022 A peek inside our process As part of our Design Presentation, we create 3D digital renders to help our clients visualise exactly what their home will look like. These photo realistic images are especially helpful for elements like custom joinery, which can be difficult to understand in the technical elevations we draw for our trades. Have a scroll to see the clever media room joinery we designed for our clients featuring a cosy window seat / reading ...nook, study desk, and full TV joinery including false panels for wire concealment and easy access. Our favourite features? The shaker profile cabinets with perforated metal fronts and handmade bronze handles! #designedbycote @ Cote Interiors See more

13.01.2022 While we absolutely love to see a design project through from concept to completion, we know not every homeowner needs full interior designer involvement. Sometimes youre just a little stuck on what colour to paint the walls, where to place the furniture, or how to achieve the look and feel you really want. Thats why we offer our One-Off Design Consultations.... In this 2-hour meeting in your home, we give you our expert advice, inspiration and tailored design tips to move your project forward with clarity and confidence. We take comprehensive notes which become your go-to guide as you banish the overwhelm and make decisions with ease. Ultimately, we give you what you need to create a home that perfectly reflects you and the lifestyle you aspire to live. If youre ready to finally feel like your home is finished, please get in touch! See more

13.01.2022 Contours The concept we created for the boutique cosmetics clinic @faceby_sm was all about making a space that feels soft, feminine, and understatedly chic. The lines of this custom piece by @limone.art are reflected in the curved reception desk. The walls have an organic appeal thanks to the deft hand of @ludibragainterior and her epic French wash. And those lights!!! A stand out feature from our fab friends at @montauklightingco. I love how this space came together for the lovely ladies of @faceby_sm. #designedbycote

12.01.2022 Hello hello! Its me, Coco. Just popping in the say hi and thanks for following along. I’ve been riding the 2020 rollercoaster as I’m sure you have been too. We could all use a break from the intensity going on in the world and in our lives.... So my goal here is to create a little bright spot of holiday vibes and happiness And even more to inspire and help you create your own holiday lifestyle happy place at home! See more

10.01.2022 While were never ones to shy away from colour, a neutral palette can be equally interesting. Here we used: * Contrast (black & white) to create energy * Natural textures (woven baskets & plants) to add depth... * Varied finishes (brass objects) for the high-low vibe we love These are all easy elements you can consider when styling your own shelves to create a beautiful balance. #styledbycote | photography @the.palm.co See more

08.01.2022 Why the Holiday Lifestyle? Having grown up on an island in the Caribbean, I was accustomed to living in a tourist destination. They would come for a week of great diving, swaying palm trees and laidback living. We had that all year round. And while island life has its own stressors (mostly mosquitos) theres not much that can ruin your day in paradise.... The happy, relaxed attitude that pervades is more than a momentary mindset, its actually a way of being. And its one that I believe everyone can experience in their everyday. It all starts where you live and home is at the heart of it. Thats why its Cotes mission to help others live The Holiday Lifestyle at Home. #coteholidaylifestyle #styledbycote See more

08.01.2022 Interior design isnt about how a space looks, its about how it makes you feel.* Its about the sense of happiness/calm/inspiration/ease/fill-in-the-blank-with-a-good-emotion that you feel being in a well designed space. At Cote, this is where we start the design process - understanding how our clients want to feel and when they feel their best.... Can you guess the most common answer? They feel best on holiday! Thats why its our mission to bring the holiday lifestyle home. So our clients can feel their best everyday! *we also make spaces look really good #styledbycote #coteholidaylifestyle

06.01.2022 I like big baskets and I cannot lie #cotecurrentlycoveting | @coastaldriftinteriors | spotted @lifestyle_collective_nb

06.01.2022 Starting off the week with some kind words from some even kinder clients We loved helping them reimagine their kitchen and bathrooms to make clever use of small spaces, increasing functionality and impact. We also developed a whole new colour and finishes palette to connect their existing heritage home to their new contemporary addition and outdoor space. Currently under construction and we cannot wait to see the final result!

06.01.2022 We bought a house yesterday! And, yes, Ive already started my Pinterest board. Also... Ive started drawing the bathroom renovation plans and furniture layout. Colour palette has commenced and I already know our new floor finish! To say Im excited is an understatement ... Im planning to share the journey and would love to know what you want to see. Please let me know below #hashtagtocome See more

06.01.2022 Whether an inner city apartment or a holiday house overlooking the ocean, we design interiors that bring the holiday lifestyle into your everyday #styledbycote | photography @the.palm.co

05.01.2022 Renewed energy this week after a quiet long weekend at home. While Ive actually been enjoying the quiet time (despite my extroverted nature ) Im feeling really motivated by all the exciting things Im working on, including design projects, plans for our new home, a whole new service offering, a complete website overhaul, and more! I love designing and creating, so having this ample time is really letting the creative juices flow. #styledbycote #coteholidaylifestyle

05.01.2022 Two Cote is celebrating our second birthday today! It may be cliche to say but what a massive two years its been!! The amount we have grown, learned, experienced, and changed is absolutely mind blowing. Were bottling up all that goodness and refining our brand, our business and our services. This video is just a snippet of more to come!... Keep an eye out for our fresh new website complete with a whole new way to work with Cote in the next few weeks In the meantime, we are so incredibly grateful for our friends, our clients, our trades, our suppliers and everyone who has made Cote what it is today. Well be popping the bubbles here at our home HQ shortly. Cheers! See more

04.01.2022 Fun quarantine activity: Create a hat wall Lots of us are using this time to declutter and reorganise. Hats are one of the hardest things to store, so why not let them make a statement even when theyre not on your head?! Here we scattered them on an entryway wall but you can also create a cluster or line them up.... Make sure to show us how you go! Pro tip: use 3M hooks for ease and flexibility. #styledbycote | photography @elinbandmannphotography See more

04.01.2022 With all of the travel restrictions and fear spreading over the global pandemic, its more important than ever to create our own oasis at home. We need a place to escape the panic and take care of ourselves. It could be something as simple as lovely bed linens, a favourite candle, or a fun cushion to bring comfort and joy to your home. It is the smallest of details that can bring a sense of calm, a touch of luxury and the holiday lifestyle to your everyday. #styledbycote | cushion @libbywatkinsart

02.01.2022 The face of someone really enjoying this whole quarantine thing... cuddles ALL day!

01.01.2022 Styling details from our shoot with @oneminutefilm yesterday! We loved featuring some of our favourite suppliers including @waltergtextiles and @inthesaclinen. Not only are their products gorgeous, thoughtfully made and high quality, the women behind the businesses are truly beautiful humans | #styledbycote

01.01.2022 Forever a favourite shot of our Surry Hills project I loved combining Cote’s signature coastal aesthetic with a more urban look to create a home that truly embodies relaxed luxury #styledbycote @the.palm.co

01.01.2022 Our Surry Hills project a contemporary, urban apartment infused with holiday vibes and casual luxury. #coteholidaylifestyle #styledbycote | photography @the.palm.co

01.01.2022 Indoor/outdoor We believe the best interiors are seamlessly connected to nature - physically, visually or through the materials used. This dining area ticks all of the boxes reflecting the leafy coastal surrounds beyond those brilliant bifold doors #styledbycote #coteholidaylifestyle

01.01.2022 What does this time mean for you? Today I had a call with the incredible mentor @kristajanesmith and the outstanding group of women from @ownerscollective where we collectively let go of the fear and anxiety that is taking over at the moment. We shared love and light amongst ourselves and sent it out into the world. There was breathing, meditation and tears.... Yes, it was very woo woo, but, honestly, if any circumstance calls for woo woo it is now In this new state of calm, we asked ourselves what this time means for us and for our businesses. How can we shift our perspective from uncertainty to positivity? How can we continue to shine our light in this scary world? Ive decided this time is about going inwards for me. Im diving deep into Cotes vision and mission. Im tightening up our systems and processes. Im polishing the brand and strategising our marketing. Im considering how we can help more people live that holiday lifestyle at home. And, you know what? Im excited! Im no longer overwhelmed with fear and just cannot wait to re-emerge and share everything with you guys. Im well aware there are still much bigger and worse things happening out there, but I truly believe the good vibes Im putting out help! So, now Id like to ask you to consider: What does this time mean for you? #cotecomingsoon | photo @oneminutefilm See more
