INSIDE STORY
FRANCINE & ADAM’S HOME
Who lives here?
Francine (pictured), a small-business owner; her husband, Adam, an accountant; and their daughters, Charlotte, nine, and Anna, seven (pictured).
Did the strict budget impact on the reno? Francine: “It made the process so much easier. We didn’t want to spend a fortune, so Marni didn’t show us things that were out of our price range because I didn’t want to feel like I was missing out on something.”
How important are your family heirlooms? “They’re very sentimental and beautiful pieces. Living amongst things that my mum and dad treasured and worked hard for is very special.” Are you glad to have had an interior designer? “The whole process was so much simpler having Marni guide me with confidence.”
