A PLACE TO REMEMBER

BALCONY

Not wanting to detract from the views of Hobart and Mount Wellington, the new veranda was given a simple design. Sofa and side table, Early Settler; find similar at Hadeda. Bespoke cushions, The Upholstery House

EXTENSION

The home is Federation era (1890-1915) so this new addition, which has Japanese influences, is a striking foil to the period-style frontage. For a similar wood burner, try Nectre

HALLWAY

Decoration is minimal so all of the focus is on the door’s original stained-glass windows. Walls in Popcorn, Porter’s Paints. Artwork, Temple & Webster. Pendant light, Schots. Rug, Zebra Home

WHISKY ROOM

A second living space in the Federation-era part of the house was turned into a snug for entertaining. Everything is luxurious – from the heavy linen curtains and velvet seating to the floral wallpaper that creates a decorative backdrop for a collection of mirrors and artwork. Wallpaper, Sandberg Wallpaper. Walls in Gunmetal Grey, Porter’s Paints. Coffee table and velvet chairs, GlobeWest. Sofa, Lounge Lovers
