MY DECORATING STYLE: Modern country, casual and comfortabl­e. I use natural materials on a neutral base, with different textures and colours. It is generous and original, but always classic.

ONE TIP FOR OTHER HOMEOWNERS: Establish a garden at the same time as building your home.

BEST BUDGET TIP: Go natural. Depending on your decorating style, go to the beach and get shells and driftwood or collect items from the countrysid­e. We made a side table from a gum tree stump that has been whitewashe­d. It looks great, but didn’t cost anything.
