ART ATTACK

-

The house, which Oliveri describes as ‘mid-century modern inspired”, is framed with floor-to-ceiling windows and the interior is as refined and contempora­ry as it is joyful — a descriptio­n that also works for Oliveri’s paintings. The home is brought to life with a collection of art, a mix of her own works and pieces she and Damian have collected.

While the interior is impressive, it’s outside in the lush garden where the Oliveris enjoy spending time as a family. “The kids love exploring the garden, feeding the fish in the pond and picking herbs from the vegetable patch,” says Oliveri. “We have a lot of picnic lunches on the grass. Lulu loves the swing and Teddy plays with cars on the steps while Damian and I tend to the garden.”

Probably just how things were 30 years ago when Oliveri lived there as a toddler.
