Sydney’s sparkly, sunny lifestyle has always held a certain appeal – but right now, it must be said, we’re swooning more than ever over that free-and-easy Sydney lifestyle!

This spectacular new home in Bellevue Hill takes ‘swoon worthy’ to new heights, with its unbelievable views of Sydney’s skyline, and incredible combination of cosy, luxe interiors, and expansive outdoor spaces.

It’s hard to compete with an outlook like that of the Hill House, but the personalised interiors by Decus Interiors, complementing architecture by Luigi Rosselli Architects make this home a triple threat!

For our latest instalment of Design Eye, we head back to the 1980s (yes!) with expert insight from award-winning Melbourne interior designer Mardi Doherty of Doherty Design Studio.

Mardi is known for her colourful, personality-filled residential projects, which always find the perfect balance between super lux, yet relaxed and liveable style.  Lately, Mardi and her team have found much inspiration in the 1980s, with its bold colour, abstract shapes, and chunky, curvy furniture forms.

Here, Mardi shares her thoughts on this retro revival trend – and re-acquaints us with iconic French furniture brand, Ligne Roset, available exclusively at DOMO.
