A Converted Church Renovation

Of course, you might remember that LIVING etc 

is my favorite decor magazine.  Nothing has replaced it

as yet and the November 2013 issue is another great one.

One of my favorite articles is the apartment of an architect and his

wife who is a fashion illustrator.  Both of their styles in this

great home are quite obvious.  The space is a converted

church in Melbourne, Australia.

Megan has hung a large image of Audrey Hepburn in

the living room and feels that every space should have

a portrait piece.  I believe that too.

This is the dining room and on the mannequin

is one of Megan's signature scarf designs.

Over the sideboard that Craig made

are more portraits of Audrey Hepburn.

This gorgeous apartment has wonderful views of

Port Philip Bay in Melbourne from their roof terrace.

I love this room.  It's Megan's studio and she

has painted the walls a Tiffany Blue color.

It looks smashing with the white leather bench and

the her illustrations mixed with photographs of

style icons makes an attractive art wall.

This is Megan's daughter Gwyn

standing in front of one of Megan's

fashion illustrations.

And this is Gwyn's girly pink bedroom.

The master bedroom gave Megan the chance to

experiment with black and white stripes.

The wallpaper is from Ralph Lauren Home.

The bed was designed by Craig.

This couple must have such fun with 

their home decor skills.

And the tub in the master bedroom.

Megan's influence is evident throughout

their apartment.

Run out to the nearest magazine shop

and grab the new LIVING etc.

There are lots of great articles and

inspiring ideas for a little change in your own home.

lovely Arabia woman.

I like to place these small paintings

on a bookshelf among my

bohemian decor books.
