After living in their home for six years, the client enlisted the expertise of Bloom Interior Design & Decoration to create a timeless interior that would continue to meet the needs of their growing family.

Located in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs, the post-Edwardian bungalow’s traditional scheme grew from the client’s desire for a home that nodded to the Hamptons with a sense of contemporary elegance. The classic colour palette of soft grey, blue, mauve, and fresh white work together to create a semi-formal interior which expresses both femininity and romance.

Our watercolour design Victoria by James Dunlop was selected for the formal sitting room. “Situated along the hall this was a room where we wanted to make a statement,” says Terri Shannon, Director of Bloom Interior Design & Decoration. Featuring an English rose in full bloom “Victoria felt like the right choice for such an important room in the home.”

“The curtains are fresh, beautiful, and simple, which complements the wallpaper perfectly.”

“In the bedrooms, we wanted something lighter and softer.” Our heavily slubbed linen, Infinite by Mokum, accompanies cushions the textured finish of a second of Mokum’ classic linens, Eternal. “The curtains are fresh, beautiful, and simple, which complements the wallpaper perfectly.”

“Being able to design from start to finish, including the beautiful soft furnishings, creates harmony throughout the whole home … it’s a project we’re very proud of.”
