Angela, an interior designer; her husband Philippe, a landscape contractor; their
daughters Albertine, 16, and Gardenia, 14; and Monty the spoodle.
WHAT’S YOUR ADVICE FOR DECORATING
WITH BOLD COLOUR AND PATTERN?
Angela: “You need some repetition of colour to create visual flow-through, so it isn’t jarring
moving from one room to the next.”
YOUR MOST CHERISHED POSSESSION?
“The painting of an African girl in our bedroom. It belonged to my husband’s grandmother and it’s so beautiful. I love the more sentimental pieces the most.”
WHAT WAS YOUR BEST DECISION?
“Designing around our family room. I love that the kids are there when I’m cooking and I can chat to them from the kitchen.”
1. Fresh hydrangeas are a match for Angela’s choice of outdoor fabrics.
