COOL CALM CHARM
Real Living Australia|June 2022
Soaring ceilings, archways and enchanting embellishments - it was love at first sight when a designer saw this Victorian terrace in Sydney's Inner East
LAURA BARRY
COOL CALM CHARM

THE OWNER OF THIS 1920s Victorian terrace in Sydney's Woollahra is interior designer Olivia Giangrasso, the founder of Olivia Giangrasso Interiors.

While the heritage property now reflects her signature style - contemporary yet unique interiors - the home wasn't always this polished.

When she acquired the tri-level terrace in 2019, it was tired, dated and in need of a refresh, but Olivia could see the potential for greatness in its bones, and fell in love with the grand six-metre frontage.
