Take a look at Lumière Lodge, a charming 1890s Victorian in the foothills of West Hobart, Tasmania, redone by a young couple: she a nurse in forensic mental health, he a cartographer and “keen bushwalker."
Inside is an eclectic mix of textures and antiques, found twigs and oil paintings, and a traditional Nectre Baker’s Oven.
Each room is painted in a hue by Porter’s Paints—Blue Spruce in the living room and kitchen.
The English-style kitchen is fitted with Neff appliances and a farmhouse sink that overlooks the cottage garden.
The dining nook is fitted with built-in banquettes and mossy velvet cushions.
Walls in the snug are painted in Guerrilla by Porter’s Paints, with oil paintings suspended from the picture rails and logs filling the original fireplace.
Collected foliage and dried blooms fill every room.
One of the cottage’s bedrooms.
