This should actually be a double crush as firstly, it’s in Australia – currently trending with me – and secondly, the interior is Scandinavian inspired which is always a winner on Stylejuicer.
The owners are stylist Simone Haag, her husband Rhys and a rather large dog called Tank. Incredibly, they managed to renovate this previously rather dark 1970s style timber home on the outskirts of Melbourne in just 3 months and now call it affectionately ‘The Log Cabin’.
Simone works for interior designers Hecker Guthrie who also gave guidance during the refurbishment. The house was totally repainted an off-white inside and a new Austrian larch floor was laid out in the main living and dining area. Kitchen and bathroom were gutted and I imagine the house must have smelt divine with all that fresh paint and wood… gorgeous.
The interior design reminds me in parts of a Swedish summer cabin and I adore the furnishing and decor which is coherent throughout and has a relaxed, clean and modern feel. The brick wall in the living area with a low and wide fire place give away the 70s origin of the house adding to it’s charm.
One of my favourite places has to be the serene uncluttered study with large filing cabinets and sexy wooden stationery items. I could happily sit there blogging and day dreaming.
If I don’t show up on this blog anymore you know where I am. On second thoughts Simone and Rhys might have something to say about that as I believe they might be expecting a new arrival that’s a lot smaller than me.
