LOFTY AMBITION
13Old and new elements merge beautifully in the study of this heritage home in Brisbane. A contemporary steel and timber shelving unit was designed to wrap around a window and draws attention to the lofty ceiling height. The intricate ceiling rose, painstakingly restored, combines with a modern geometric pendant light in another uplifting feature, with softness coming from the decorative rug and beautifully designed curtains. Quirky pieces of art, books and objects are the final, homely touches.
