25.01.2022 A little vignette from our Walsh Bay project, if only the whole world would extend an olive branch right now
25.01.2022 Many of my clients have a common love, a love to entertain family and friends . . When taking the brief they will often request finishes and fabrics that are durable and can tolerate high traffic but want the home to feel and look beautiful. .... . How do you achieve that happy medium? . . That’s where my skills and expertise come into play. As an interior designer I am always sourcing and discovering new materials that are available so in turn I can create homes that are practical, functional and of course aesthetically pleasing. . .

23.01.2022 What colours do you think of when you think neutral? Black, white or stone perhaps? . . Sure they are obvious colours but have you ever thought of introducing metallics as a neutral? Gold, silver, bronze are also great neutral colours but they also add another textural element making a neutral scheme that much more interesting. .... . When working on your next neutral scheme try introducing a metallic for something a little different. But if it falls into the too hard basket or you are just not sure I would be happy to help you!

23.01.2022 North Rocks Project A recently completed project for a lovely family of five, the couple have three school aged children. They called me during their construction stage as the client said she wanted to get it right the first time and have no regrets.... The brief was to create a relaxed family home that was practical, relatively minimal (she hates clutter) whilst still being inviting and was keen to introduce a little colour. From the initial consultation right through to installation it is always exciting to see a project come to life. Design: @thedetailednest Photography: @heistcreative
22.01.2022 Trust forms the foundation of any relationship and working with an interior designer is no different. I never take it for granted when a client invites me into their home and trusts that I will deliver their desired outcome. So when a client calls to say I have another project for you it is such a compliment knowing that they trust you and your skills. This image is the master bedroom in their Sydney city apartment.

18.01.2022 And we are out ... what a crazy and wonderful year 2020 has been. A huge thank you to my amazing clients who I have enjoyed working with this year. It is always such a privilege to be invited into your homes and the trust which you instilled in me is never taken lightly. To my loyal followers thank you so much for all comments, interactions and ’s it means alot. I look forward to sharing the projects which will be completed early next ...year and of course what is planned in the pipeline for 2021. Wishing everyone a safe and happy Christmas and to my fellow Sydneysider’s take care friends. For now I will be taking some time off and will be back, refreshed and ready to go again on January 18th.

18.01.2022 Samples, I love samples. Why you ask? They help to paint the picture. Whether it be flooring, bench tops, cabinetry or upholstery grouping samples together helps to provide a visual to see how all the finishes relate to one another and work as a whole. When working with clients typically during the presentation stage of a scheme, I use samples to help depict the colour, texture and scale of finishes helping you to be confident in your final decisions
17.01.2022 Throw back to one of my favourite projects in Sydney’s Walsh Bay. This project was a complete renovation from a new kitchen, wall treatments, new flooring, custom joinery, window treatment and furniture. The brief was to design a space which was contemporary, tailored and elegant whilst still feeling inviting. The importance of creating a home that brings you joy is more important than ever before. As one of the most intimate spaces, a home tells the story of who you are. Great design, therefore, is completely subjective to each individual and so is each and every space I put together for my clients. If you are looking at engaging an interior designer feel free to get in touch via the link in my bio. Currently scheduling in new projects for March 2021.
17.01.2022 How do you do dinner? Whether you use your dining table or tend to use the kitchen bench or maybe it’s the lounge, we all live in our homes to suit us and that’s what home is. Here is a dining room from our Adelaide project, that would make any meal special. ... Design @thedetailednest Photography @heistcreative
15.01.2022 Contrast is key to any beautiful interior.
11.01.2022 Do you know you don't always have to start over? This wallpaper was existing when my client purchased the house. To maximise the budget we decided to keep the wallpaper so I designed the master bedroom around this wallpaper. The overall style being classic contemporary with a sense of luxury. She loves her room and describes it like staying in a five star hotel!
10.01.2022 At The Detailed Nest it's all about creating liveable, personal and exceptional design which comes through true collaboration. By listening to your story and translating them into a tangible reality. I help you to curate a space that reflects everything you want your home to be. Whether it be a minimal kitchen design, considered wine storage or a custom day bed to take in the harbour views it is all inspired by the individual and what the concept of 'home'... truly means to them.

10.01.2022 Styling Tip ... One of my number go-to props for styling is fruit. Take a single kind of fruit that is in season, find a gorgeous bowl you love and fill it up! By concentrating just on the one kind will make for visual impact. So simple, so effective. If you are out market shopping this morning why not pick up some vibrant citrus fruit or perhaps some kiwi fruit both are currently in season.
09.01.2022 A sneak peek into the recent photo shoot for @tasmaneco beautiful nursery furniture making it easy to create the perfect interior for your little one. And how gorgeous is this baby boy? I think he may be a stylist in the making as he kept adjusting those branches ... I wasn’t bothered by it at all Styling @thedetailednest ... Photography @heistcreative See more
07.01.2022 Does your home make your heart sing? Or is it more of a ho-hum? With life as we know it now, it seems we all have a greater appreciation of home. Our homes are an incredibly personal space of retreat, of relaxation and inspiration. It's where we nurture ourselves and our family. Great design is about telling a story, which is completely subjective to each individual and so is each and every space I design for my clients.... If you want your home to be a visual translation of your lifestyle, personality and story let's have a chat and see how in 2021 we can eliminate the ho-hum forever.

07.01.2022 It’s been a minute since my last post but since coming back (last week) I have hit the ground running as I continue on with current projects and commencing new ones. Looking forward to sharing with you completed projects, more BTS, design tips and most importantly inspiring you to create a home that truly reflects you! Here is a gorgeous little corner from the North Rocks project. I realised I haven’t shared all the images so I will be doing so over the next few posts. This... project was such a delight it was all about creating an inviting, relaxed family home. What sort of feeling do you want to create in your home?

07.01.2022 Life can move pretty fast, you don't stop and look around once in a while you could miss it - Ferris Bueller Growing up I was obsessed with the movie 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' but these are some wise words. Life certainly does move pretty fast and I guess that's why it's so important to all of us to create a home that tells our story. As one of the most intimate spaces, a home tells the story of who you are, the life you live and the ...life you hope to live in the future. It's about creating spaces where memories are made, where comfort is found and where you can be completely vulnerable in safe, familiar surrounds. So when I take on a new project, the design is completely subjective to each individual and so is each and every space I put together It brings me such joy to capture my client's personal journey through design. Creating homes that are beautiful and functional spaces which suit their lifestyles If you're ready to transform your home send me a DM and let's have a chat. @heistcreative See more
07.01.2022 Styling Tip . . When it comes to styling a bedside table here are my top four items which are easy to style, will create visual interest and make the vignette work as a whole. .... . Of course, a gorgeous lamp which adds height and provides the essential ambient lighting. Floral or greenery arrangement adding a sense of freshness and life to the room. A scented candle which of course heightens our sense of smell making us feel good. Books and more books interjecting some of your interests and personality. . . . Be sure to save this post as these four elements are a good starting point in creating a more inviting and calm sanctuary in your bedroom. . . Styling: @thedetailednest Photography: @heistcreative
07.01.2022 After all the Christmas shopping I did this weekend, I was SO happy to leave the shopping centres and come home. Who else is with me? #Ifinishedmychristmasshopping
07.01.2022 Here at The Detailed Nest it is our mission to evoke emotion, invite comfort, and ignite familiar feelings of home through individualistic and considered design.
07.01.2022 Our Adelaide Project . . This project was one where we started from scratch. The client purchased a new home and wanted the overall function and style of the home to suit her personality and lifestyle. .... . We pretty much treated every surface in the house: a new paint scheme, new kitchen, drapery, rugs, lighting, custom furniture, artwork and styling. . . This project is a perfect example of our complete interior design service whereby we can design your dream home. By listening to your story and translating it into a tangible reality, we help you curate a space that reflects everything you want your home to be - a sanctuary of comfort, indulgence and character. . . .

06.01.2022 What is one thing (or two) that you would have in your dream home or even in your current home? For me, it would be a large walk in robe fitted out with custom joinery, ok ladies who's with me?
04.01.2022 Never, ever. Cushions are a must in the styling process when completing a room. They add colour, pattern, texture and absolutely say you're home. Are you a cushion lover?
