    A Spectacular, Art-Filled Home In Melbourne's Outer Suburbs

    When most people think about reimagining an interior, they visualise a layer of decoration over an existing room. But this approach often doesn’t do justice to the architectural subtleties of a space.

    Rather than viewing bare rooms as a blank slate, interior designer Chelsea Hing seeks to dissolve the distinction between interior architecture and decoration. She approaches her projects with a sympathetic eye for the building’s existing design, and strives to create complete harmony between architectural structure and interior ambience.

    The stunning transformation of this sprawling home in the Melbourne’s North Eastern suburb of Park Orchards exemplifies this approach – enhanced by precise art curation, and some seriously wow-factor furniture!
