RUG RULES
Gorgeous carpets and stunning rugs add sumptuous style and colour to your décor – and oh, what a treat underfoot. Keep the room cosy with quality rugs in wool silk and natural fibres to create a spectacular visual feature. Brighten up a bedroom or warm the living space with a gorgeous feature rug hung on a wall. Take a daring bold print or textured rug and complement your wooden floor or carpet.

WHO’S THE FAIREST OF THEM ALL?
Give your house a magical makeover with mirrors. Whether it’s transforming small spaces or brightening a dark room, they can work miracles. When you’re getting ready for work or trying on that special outfit, mirrors are essential in the bathroom and bedroom. But they can also make a dramatic statement in any room of the house.

EVERY DAY’S A HOLIDAY
The quiet beachside suburb of Avalon, on Sydney’s northern tip, attracts both young and old with its stunning beaches, laid-back lifestyle and old-fashioned feeling of community. Several years ago, the Roberts family succumbed to Avalon’s allure and they haven’t looked back, with Anne describing their life as one which “feels like we’re always on holidays”.

ALCHEMY PALETTE
Magical powers seem to be involved when you mix two pure saturated colours of deep purple and bright green. From the simple exercise of mixing these pure colours comes a palette of beautiful muted purples, rich slate and moss greens. The beauty of this tertiary palette is the way it works so well with the cool range of metals and this combination is known to colour designers as the metal palette.
