Harry Poulos shares some firsts and favourite things.

FIRST ADULT HOME? An early 1900s Queenslander in Ascot, Brisbane. It was a great project for us as a young couple. I painted a little watercolour of it (7). BUCKET-LIST DESTINATION? Mexico (1). I’d love to hit the beach, eat some tacos and sip margaritas. I’m also partial to a nice sombrero! DREAM RESTAURANT TABLE? 11 Madison Park (10) in New York City. It does an exceptional degustation and every plate is like a piece of art.

FAVOURITE DOWNTIME PURSUIT? I enjoy Saturday mornings working in the garden and soaking up the sun (6). I may not be the best gardener, but it gives me a chance to switch off and relax. Winnie (our dog) stays by my side the whole time. FAVOURITE ARTIST? Australian artist Robert Hunter (2). I really appreciate his minimalistic and geometric style and I am intrigued with how he uses everyday materials like house paint and masking tape to create simple but layered works of art. We purchased one of his pieces years ago and still admire it every day. FAVOURITE DESIGNER? Without a doubt, Frank Lloyd Wright. I have admired his work since I was in high school and the detail, particularly in his residential designs, interests me to this day. The Guggenheim Museum (3), one of Lloyd Wright’s commercial projects, is a must-see for anyone visiting New York. FAVOURITE FASHION LABELS? Massimo Dutti (4), a Spanish brand that is classic in style, good quality and not too expensive. R.M. Williams (5) are a must! FAVOURITE SCENT? At the moment, Louis Vuitton L’immensité (11). A HOMEWARE PIECE YOU COVET? A vintage Mario Bellini ‘Camaleonda’ sofa (9) in leather. They’re very rare and hard to get, but well worth the hunt. NEXT MAJOR PURCHASE FOR THE HOME? A Slayer espresso machine (8). I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT... A felt-tip pen – fine-tip, of course! Whether I’m in the office, car, on site or at home, I will have a handful of Artline felt-tip pens within reach, ready for designing, marking up drawings or even just doodling on a loose piece of paper. #
