ART HOUSE
Elegance and simplicity were the key to this room in a Melbourne home, to honour the 1930s bones of the building and showcase a serious art collection. Whitewashed walls highlight the architecture and create a gallery setting for revolving artworks. The original fireplace was encased in black marble; the modern-classic furniture designs are versatile enough to suit the evolving space. As a result, says the owner, “the living area is now spacious and light-filled.”
