Urban style is influenced by cosmopolitan design as well as lifestyle, resulting in a fusion of modern, contemporary and industrial elements. While urban style is closely connected to architecture, it is also a representation of personality and how one goes about their day in the city, drawing on cafe culture, fashion, art and music to make each interpretation uniquely personal. Surround by Laminex Campaign I Creative direction: @ortolandesign I Set Design: @studioesteta I Styling: @becksimonstylist I Photography: @evegwilson Urban style could be a factory-turned-loft apartment that juxtaposes brick and exposed beams, melding bohemian and industrial by placing Persian rugs alongside a vinyl collection. It could be a sleek, minimal retreat with all the latest tech, where polished surfaces and vast glazing overlook a city skyline. Or it might be a renovated townhouse that marries heritage charm with contemporary finishes and the latest in designer furniture. Interior: @arentpkyestudio I Styling: @clairedelmar I Photography: @smartanson No matter which look matches your aesthetic, linen bedding has the ability to inject individual personality into any urban interior scheme through colour, styling, and textural warmth. This fuss-free look favours sophisticated charcoals and grey melange, making it a popular style for men, while linen’s qualities of softness and durability add to its urban appeal.

Not to be confused with country style, this look takes an organic, environmental approach to design that places emphasis on natural materials and elements. Earthy style can be influenced by weather and climate, as well as the tones and textures of the outdoor landscape, from trees and lush pastures to clay and stone, even berries and flowers. Contemporary Scandinavian design is a classic nod to earthy style, with architects and designers often making reference to the landscape and natural features of a region while harnessing these elements in their designs. This can involve using raw timber as cladding, and introducing rich, warm tones to cooler elements of stone and blackened oak. Mornington House by Studio Esteta I Photography: Sharyn Cairns I Published: The Local ProjectThe natural, textural qualities of linen make it an obvious choice for earthy style, with linen bedding and accessories imbuing a grounded luxury and sumptuous tactility to a nature-inspired scheme. A gentle, organic palette comprising stone hues, warm neutrals of flax and taupe, and rich browns and rusts is the perfect representation of a slower pace and living in harmony with the natural environment.

This timeless look draws from a variety of influences, and while there is no one-style-fits-all formula, inspiration generally comes from the natural and immediate environment. This is why we often see rustic timbers and highly textural materials within this interior scheme. Country style can be interpreted in many ways, including 'homestead style', which melds old-world charm with a sense of grandeur; the quaint, handmade appeal of 'cottage style'; and 'modern country', a sensitive pairing of antique and contemporary elements. Interior published in Haus Love I Photography: Sarah Sheilds The key to styling a country theme is the considered layering of objects, homewares and furniture, incorporating vintage finds with rustic pieces in a variety of finishes such as glass, timber and metals. In addition, fabric and soft furnishings play an important role in balancing warmth and texture with cool, smooth surfaces. The Repose Boutique Accommodation in Dubbo I Photography Abbie Melle I HMCo linen purchased through @the_reposeNo matter which interpretation you prefer, one of the most beautifully suited materials in any country style scheme is linen. With a looser weave than most other fabrics, this natural fibre can be applied everywhere from bedding to furniture. For an effortlessly elegant bedscape, take a tonal approach to layering and focus on textural variety such as a throw or blanket in a highly tactile weave, or include a melange weave for added depth and interest.

A nod to cottage style, which marries practicality and comfort with charming accent pieces, modern femininity is all about making a space feel both cosy and elegant. Rather than having one strong theme in mind, for example ‘shabby chic’ or ‘Hamptons coastal’,  the focus is on soothing, muted hues and understated details that effortlessly elevate and adapt to any interior scheme, leaving a space to feel softer and more beautiful from age and use.   Featuring: Flocca Body Cushion on Floss and Crush Linen Throw in Ayrton Melange.   Key to this look is our signature Flocca range, beloved for its exquisitely hand-tufted edges which imbue each piece, whether it be a cushion, blanket or sheet sheets, with a luxurious, handcrafted quality. This subtle detail works wonderfully in many styles, including contemporary interior design, where it brings softness and femininity to clean lines and pared-back spaces, as well as a country aesthetic, where the look is perfectly at home alongside floral patterns and timber accents.      Featuring: Kristine Linen Flat Sheet in Ayrton, Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Brun and Flocca Linen European in Ayrton.   For a touch of old-world romance, look to the gathered flange and hand-tufted edges of our Kristine range, which can appear beautifully rustic when featured in antique white Ayrton in a country-style bedroom paired with Carmel, our sun-bleached caramel hue or add inviting warmth to a modern, minimal bedroom setting accent pieces such as Crush Merino blanket in Oro.    Featuring: Kristine Linen European in Ayrton and Crush Merino Blanket in Oro.   The subtle, hand-tufted details and soft, feminine colours of our pure linen bedding are designed to be layered effortlessly with pieces from the same range or can be used to soften bolder patterns and motifs. Fresh whites such as Ayrton can be paired with sandy Sable, earthy Floss or the warm stone of Petra, creating a soothing and versatile backdrop to be personalised with cushions and throws.    Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet in Floss and Flocca Linen Flat sheet in Petra.   A thoughtful juxtaposition of soft touches and statement-making pieces can be carried through to furnishings and decor, where the addition of a vintage lampshade or delicate floral arrangement can enhance feminine shapes and tones, while heavier timber furniture balanced with cool marble and metal accents will anchor the space and create a look that is both contemporary and timeless.

Transeasonal Neutrals A crisp, linen sundress in the warmth of the day, wrapped in a cosy knit by the cool of the evening. The fresh, sweet scent of magnolia carried on a summer breeze, honeyed hues of dappled afternoon light dancing across white walls. Lightweight layers of texture, from airy linen sheets to the gentle comfort of a quilt or blanket. Classic antique white Ayrton and creamy Petra are subtly warmed by sandy Sable and the muted toffee tone of Brun.   To shop these layered schemes and view many more, browse the 'Shop our Style' resource.

A touch of colour can completely transform the mood of a space, elevating a neutral palette and imbuing richness and depth to a pared-back interior. You don’t need bright hues to discover the power of colour in your home. In fact, keeping to more muted tones, with versatile pieces such as blankets and throws, can make an elegant style statement with minimal fuss.     Colour palette: Linen in Kali, Nox and Petra with an Crush Merino Blanket in Oro   The first consideration when introducing colourful accents in the overarching palette of a room. A grey, concrete interior can be enlivened and rejuvenated with a pop of colour such as Oro, our soft and muted saffron hue. Golden, mustard tones work beautifully with greys, with an indulgent layering of Brun, Russo and Sable effectively bringing warmth to a cool, contemporary scheme.      Featuring: Colour palette of Brun (back pillow) Maiz and Russo (front pillows) Sable base.  In this beautiful, textural interior project by Arent&Pyke, warm, earthy tones from our pure linen collection create an ambient glow amid brick, concrete, and cool, grey tones. Our Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Maiz and Russo and our Flocca Linen Body Cushion in Brun tie in with accents of terracotta and timber throughout the home.    If you are starting from scratch, consider the room’s existing finishes such as timber floors, carpet, walls, and other larger surfaces. Do you want your palette to be warm and cosy or cool and soothing? Furniture such as a sofa or armchair in a moody hue can make a bold statement, however the simple addition of textiles such as bed linen, throws and cushions can also have a big impact while allowing you to experiment with different looks and combinations.   Discover these popular colour stories from our collection:     Linen palette of Bere (top left) Rosa (bottom right) and Brun with a Crush Double Throw in Moro/Floss.      Linen Palette of Mare (top left), Argent (bottom right) and a Flocca Macaron Cushion in Roy and Crush Double Throw in Kali/Petra.      Linen Palette of Russo (top left), Brun (bottom right) and Carmel with a Crush Linen Throw in Armee.    See more inspiring colour palettes and styling ideas in Shop Our Style

Pillows and cushions are a simple and versatile way to elevate your bedroom or refresh your space with a new look, with many variations to mix, match and layer. Here, our stylist shares some expert tips and tricks to create an inviting bedscape that exudes elegance and comfort.     Standard Pillows and Cushions From classic pillows to bolsters and scatter cushions, there are plenty of options available when it comes to styling these versatile bedroom accessories. Here are a few of our go-to ideas for achieving a timeless look that can be easily adapted to suit your interior design scheme.       The king of relaxed bed styling: The body cushion     Featuring: Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Petra, Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Sable and Flocca Linen Body Cushion in Floss. Position 1-2 standard pillows upright rather than laying them flat, which will likely result in your pillows and body cushion sitting at the same height and appearing odd from your bed’s side profile. Your two upright pillows will frame your body cushion as they are a fraction taller, and will work to best effect if chosen in a contrasting colour.      The classic combo: Flocca Linen Cushion (50 x 50cm) & Basix Stripe Cushion   Featuring: Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Russo, Basix Stripe Cushion on Brun/Sable and Flocca Linen Cushion in Brun. This classic look is perfectly proportioned and works well with standard pillows, both upright or flat. Sit your 50 x 50cm cushion just off-centre to one side and your 40 x 60cm cushion in the centre, overlapping the front of the other by approximately half. You could also consider swapping the 40 x 60cm cushion for a bolster cushion or the 50 x 50cm for a Euro for that extra wow factor – the same styling applies.     Two’s company: A matching pair    Featuring: Flocca Linen Pillowcase (back) in Carmel, Basix Linen Pillowcases in Petra and Basix Bolster Cushion in Brun/Sable. This look features two of the same cushions symmetrically positioned at the front of your pillows, creating a timeless and cohesive look. While this style can work with flat pillows, the look will have the best impact when created with standard pillows that are positioned upright. Try 50 x 50cm sizing for a classic aesthetic or a bolster or striped 40 x 60cm cushion for a more personalised pairing.       Arranging with Euros Traditionally, European pillows, or Euros, are positioned at the back followed by standard pillows at the front. Large and decorative, they make an elegant addition to any bedroom as well as offering comfort and support. Here are some handy tips on how they can be used to effortlessly elevate your look.   Try bringing your Euros to the front and standard pillows to the back. This will help give your bed a volumising lift without loading up with scatter cushions. Be sure to have a nice amount of standard pillows showing at each end of the bed to frame your Euros and create symmetry. You can also add a body cushion for a further layer of texture and colour.    Featuring: Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Mare, Flocca European Pillowcases in Argent and Flocca Linen Body Cushion in Floss.     Introduce scatter cushions. Your Euros will look best at the back when including a cushion taller than, or propped up higher than, your standard pillows. In the instance where you have shorter cushions such as a 40 x 60cm or a bolster, you may want to move your Euros in front of your standard-sized pillows to avoid a waterfall effect (tall to short pillows) which can make your whole bed appear as though it’s sloping down.    Featuring: Flocca European Linen Pillowcases in Tempest, Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Tempest and Flocca Linen Cushion in Bere.     Go for a grand, traditional look with Euros placed at the back. This works particularly well on a king bed. Two to three is the optimum number, with king standard pillows advised and taller cushion clusters recommended to balance the length. Alternatively, positioning king standard pillows at the back and two Euros at the front will add elegance and height.   Featuring: Flocca European Linen Pillowcases in Russo and Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Rosa.   For more inspiration on how to style your pure linen bedding, and to explore inviting colour combinations for your bedroom and living spaces,  visit Shop Our Style.

Imbuing a highly contemporary space with softness and warmth takes skill and creativity,  qualities innate to the interior design team at Flack Studio who have achieved an inviting balance of sleek modernism and colourful character in this stunning Toorak residence. Blending streamlined finishes and elevated materials with personalised accents, this new build exudes a warm, textural minimalism that is both modernist and classic.   Interiors: @flackstudio_  | Architecture:@blightblightandblight  |  Photography: ⁠@smartanson + @derek_swalwell  |  via: @bellemagazineau   The brief was for a considered family home that would get better with age, fit harmoniously into its surrounds – a neighbourhood renowned for its architectural history – and maximise its aspect by creating a strong connection to the outdoors. Collaborating with architect Richard Blight of Blight, Blight and Blight, David Flack of Flack Studio took inspiration from the suburban landscape as well as the daily habits of the residents, a couple with three young adult children who enjoy cooking, reading and spending time together.   Interiors: @flackstudio_  | Architecture:@blightblightandblight  |  Photography: ⁠@smartanson + @derek_swalwell  |  via: @bellemagazineau   Designed to support the family’s lifestyle, the home’s seamless flow and voluminous proportions were carefully considered, the team utilising a selection of materials including black steel, grey render and natural stone as well as timber joinery and aged brass fixtures that would continue to improve aesthetically over time. Colourwise, the objective was to offer a tonal palette throughout the building while harnessing bursts of colour in the powder room and library.    Interiors: @flackstudio_  | Architecture:@blightblightandblight  |  Photography: ⁠@smartanson + @derek_swalwell  |  via: @bellemagazineau   In the centre of the home, a dark American oak staircase with an organic, fluid form creates a dramatic sculptural feature, introducing a natural warmth and texture to a cool white palette and travertine floor tiles. Tactile accents and vintage pieces add personalised touches, with a thoughtful curation of décor, art, furniture and lighting elevating each space with a sense of understated luxury that eliminates the need for fussy ornamentation and embellishments.    Interiors: @flackstudio_  | Architecture:@blightblightandblight  |  Photography: ⁠@smartanson + @derek_swalwell  |  via: @bellemagazineau   In the powder room, floor-to-ceiling green marble tiles and a custom marble basin create a striking scheme, with sophisticated aged-brass fixtures carrying through from the kitchen and dressing room. In the library, the colourful spines of hundreds of books enliven the American oak shelves, while large windows are strategically positioned to maximise natural light and views of the garden.    Interiors: @flackstudio_  | Architecture:@blightblightandblight  |  Photography: ⁠@smartanson + @derek_swalwell  |  via: @bellemagazineau   In the master bedroom, a striking leather bedhead is complemented by pure linen bedding in our softened and muted mulberry shade Moro, with pieces from our signature Flocca range including our Flocca Linen Duvet Cover and Flocca European Linen Pillowcases lending an earthy richness to this elegant space. Layered over pure linen sheets and pillows in our warm and sandy Sable hue, Moro adds just the right amount of sumptuous colour, with the exquisitely hand-tufted edges of our Flocca range offering a subtle, textural detail in fitting with the home’s commitment to quiet indulgence.   Interiors: @flackstudio_  | Architecture:@blightblightandblight  |  Photography: ⁠@smartanson + @derek_swalwell  |  via: @bellemagazineau   Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet in Moro, Flocca Linen Euro pillowcase in Moro, Flocca Linen Flat Sheet in Moro, Basix Linen Pillowcases in Sable and Basix Linen Fitted Sheet in Sable.   Explore our scrumptious collection of Moro and try pairing Sable/Brun Stripe pillowcases and accessories with Sable sheets, as well as a Crush Linen Blanket in Quill for added textural and tonal appeal.

There are few interior schemes more classic and adaptable than monochrome. Inherently elegant, this timeless look creates a calm and cohesive appearance that works in almost any home, from traditional to contemporary, with a tonal ombre effect that can be both moody and sophisticated or soothing and subtle.    Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet in Fog, Flocca Linen Flat Sheet in Ayrton, Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Tempest and Flocca European Pilowcases in Roy.   While styling a monochrome scheme may seem simple, the use of similar hues across floors, walls, soft furnishings and decor can easily come across as stark, cold or otherwise inviting when the space is lacking in texture, natural materials, and thoughtful details that imbue warmth and elevate the look with hints of understated luxury.      The key to mastering monochrome lies in layering, starting with a base colour on the walls which can then be complemented by soft furnishings to enhance your palette. Layering textures can prevent the space from looking flat, while accent pieces such as lighting, mirrors, plaster features and unique furniture can also help to lift a neutral, monochrome scheme.     Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet in Petra, Flocca Linen Flat Sheet in Sable and Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Petra and Sable.   In the stunning Armadale home of architect Rob Mills, elegant and uninterrupted spaces have been achieved by emphasising subtle colour changes and luxurious materials and finishes. In the bedroom, our Flocca Linen Duvet in Nox and Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Nox and Sable lend tactile beauty and warmth, with delicately hand-tufted edges and a subtle melange softening a contemporary interior space.     Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet in Nox and Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Sable in Nox.   A characteristic of monochrome interiors is a sense of simplicity, with natural materials – from cool marble to warm and textural linen – adding interest and balance without being overpowering. Carrying a similar colour palette throughout a room creates the perfect backdrop for standout pieces such as a unique side table or much-loved vase to be showcased, while pure linen bedding offers the perfect opportunity to build tonal layers that bring a sumptuous, lived-in quality to a modern monochrome look.

The Mediterranean has long had an influence on the world of design, and it’s easy to see why. Synonymous with the good life, the region evokes leisurely days filled with sun and sea, a place rich in history, culture and tradition, and with a glorious climate that lends itself to a relaxed outdoor lifestyle. Rooted in centuries of life along one of the world’s most captivating coastlines, this look has classic appeal yet can be easily adapted in more contemporary ways. Via @ad_magazine,Santorini, Greece. Photography @niallkelly18  Homes in the Mediterranean are designed to complement their surroundings, with locally sourced stone and terracotta alongside woven baskets and handmade ceramics. A strong sense of craftsmanship pervades, and the overall sentiment is one of unhurriedness and embracing a slower pace. These homes are made to be lived in, with a focus on open, light-filled spaces, natural materials, and a connection to the outdoors. Thankfully, channelling the carefree feeling of a summer vacation at home doesn't require an Italian villa or a Balearic island getaway. Architectural features aside, the essence of Mediterranean design has some key characteristics that are easy to achieve and work in almost any location, starting with a fresh, light palette. White-washed walls, stone, timber and render coupled with soft curves and organic shapes create a blank canvas to layer raw, tactile materials – clay, linen, rattan and terracotta – that imbue a handmade quality and fuse modern with traditional.   Via @ad_magazine - Photographer @matthieusalvaing Finding a balance so that the look that doesn’t appear ‘themed’ means blending old with new, boho with minimalism. As the Mediterranean is such an eclectic mix of countries and cultures, an eclectic approach to design is key, allowing freedom to adapt this style to suit your interior scheme. There is a focus on pieces that combine functionality with beauty, making spaces highly liveable in a day-to-day environment while offering small moments of pleasure through pieces that elevate everyday routines.In the luxurious, light-filled bathroom of Byron Beach Abodes, the classic dense waffle design of our Flocca Linen Bath Towels add textural appeal and warm contrast to a smooth, white palette reminiscent of classic Mediterranean style.

Originally used in heritage homes to protect walls from being damaged by furniture as well as add an extra layer of insulation, today wainscoting has taken on a more decorative purpose. Found everywhere from coastal cottages to minimalist apartments, this technique of using paneled boards to clad walls is making a modern comeback with refined interpretations and contemporary materials.    Example of traditional wainscoting enhanced design by @georgina_jeffries   Wainscoting involves a portion of an internal wall being clad with panels, adding a decorative element to a pared-back space or highlighting a home's traditional features. This versatile trend can be adapted to suit just about any design scheme, from country to beachy and everything in between, and has been very popular as a modern adaption of a headboard with the lower portion of the wall featuring statement-making paneling detail.    @Pago_middleton designed by @fabrikate_creative_spaces featuring Basix fitted sheet and pillowcases in Carmel and Flocca Linen Duvet in Kali.    Kasa Byron - Design & Decoration by @spacestudio__ @mimdesignstudio @kimberleywiedermann, Photography: @tfadtomferguson Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet, Flocca Linen Europeans and Flocca Linen Body Cushion in Armee.

An effortless blend of coastal, cottage and contemporary with mid-century accents, it’s no surprise that classic Californian style is an enduring favourite. Combining modern and traditional design with an undone elegance, this timeless look is characterised by rich texture, calming neutrals and natural materials, drawing inspiration from the culture, architecture and lifestyle of the West Coast to create a unique and adaptable aesthetic that exudes comfort, personality and heritage.   Many hallmarks of classic Californian style as we know it today arose from the Mission Revival Style of the late 19th century, which mimicked the Spanish missions built a century earlier. Harking back to simpler times, the white stucco walls, clay tile roofs, large, curved windows and sun-drenched patios became a significant inspiration for Californian architecture long after, with ornamental detailing largely eschewed for clean lines and solid, exposed rafters.     1936 Spanish Mission style Sydney home by architect Allan Edgecliff Stafford revamped by Studio Kate.    When the Art Deco movement began to flourish in the 1920s, decorative accents became more prevalent – rich, bold colour and lush texture – which were later tempered by the subtle restraint of mid-century modernist design and its emphasis on function. The result was a backdrop centred on organic shapes, natural materials and rich tactility that set the mood for unique yet timeless furnishings  – from eclectic vintage finds to handcrafted statement pieces – that tell a story.     Photography by Ricardo Labougle. via Architectural digest   A hybrid of several popular styles, classic Californian style is highly versatile and lends itself to contemporary, light-filled spaces as much as a bold, moody bungalow of blues and greens, as observed in this decadent yet lived-in Ojai residence.

Complete the look with Brun, Nox and Mare to create a sumptuous sleep haven at home, while benefiting from the softness, breathability and year-round comfort of pure linen bedding.    Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet in Carmel.   The traditional elements of classic Californian style reference a cottage look synonymous with tranquil beach houses dotted along the west coast, a wholesome, handcrafted approach that surged in popularity during the pandemic. More time spent at home saw a shift away from wild patterns and bold trends and a move towards comforting, classic interiors that evoke a sense of connection to people and place, with a high/low mix of antiques, mid-century statement pieces and modern luxuries achieving a worldly yet cosy feel.     Featuring: Flocca Linen body cushion and Flocca Linen pillowcases in Floss. This contemporary retreat by interior designer Vanessa Alexander exudes classic Californian style with a strong cottage influence, from the fresh white palette to the thoughtful blend of vintage and modern furnishings.

It is likely you've heard about friends, family or colleagues making a 'tree change' or 'sea change' in recent years, or perhaps you’ve even made one yourself. During the pandemic, Australia – and indeed the world – has seen a great shift from urban to rural living, with many people deserting city centres in favour of smaller country and coastal villages. This regional relocation is not only satisfying a desire for a simpler life, but it has also inspired a renewed approach to style and design centred around an appreciation for small everyday pleasures. A collective craving for a slower pace has brought about both a geographical and cultural shift, with those moving away from cities seeing themselves and their homes from a fresh perspective. Travelling from cosmopolitan capitals to the countryside or coast, these tree- and sea-changers are bringing with them their contemporary sensibilities and leaving behind the hurriedness of modern life, creating space to discover what feels meaningful and authentic.    The Burrows, Swansea Tasmania with views overlooking Great Oyster Bay. @the_burrows_swansea  | Featuring: Flocca Linen Body Cushion, Flocca Linen Cushions and Basix stripe cushion in Fog/Tempest.   Heightened regard for all things slow is seeing us increasingly wanting to surround ourselves with handmade, high-quality pieces – from interiors to fashion – that tell a story, are classic in their design and are made to last. Spending more time at home than ever before, it has become paramount that we create a space that satisfies an innate need for connection to each other, and to the natural world. Artisan skills are seeing a resurgence, with ceramics and basket weaving popular examples of how traditional handicrafts can bring both beauty and functionality to our living spaces.  While a rural reset in itself can be beneficial to our wellbeing, there is also a strong tendency toward nature-inspired design, where colours, shapes and materials are chosen – either intentionally or subconsciously – for their ability to evoke the same soothing and restorative effects of being in the outdoors. Our signature range of pure lining bedding in muted, earthy tones is the perfect way to bring nature’s palette into your home, from the mushroom-hued Cep and forest-green Silva to our grounding pinks and tranquil blues. Accents of oceanic Mare, chocolate-hued Bere, and our muted mulberry tone Moro are ideal for imbuing warmth to our core neutral palette and reflecting rich outdoor tones.    Crush Linen Blanket in Silva, a new deep emerald green hue inspired by Farway Forrest.  |   Piero Portaluppi’s Villa Necchi via @moro_dabron   Classical influenced modern kitchen by deVOL Kitchens @devolkitchens  |  Earthy textural hues from Earthy Dreamscape Shop our Style.   This connection to the landscape extends beyond interior design into the field of architecture, with new builds and renovations exploring innovative, creative solutions to ensure eco-conscious construction is just as important as aesthetics when it comes to creating our rural sanctuaries.

Luxurious yet understated, this versatile piece brings the feeling of lived-in layers to a contemporary scheme while offering freshness to more classic bedroom styles, always exuding a look of effortless elegance that is simple to achieve.     Flocca Pure Linen Bedspread in Ayrton.   When it comes to bed styling with our Flocca Linen Bedspread, less is more. Handcrafted with pure Italian heavyweight linen, our bedspread has been designed to drape sumptuously over your bed linen as a feature on its own, with a simple tuck under the pillows being all that is needed to make a style statement. As well as being a beautiful and luxurious addition to your bedroom, our pure linen bedspread is also wonderfully breathable, making it ideal for layering over a flat sheet in the warmer months.     Flocca Pure Linen Bedspread in Sable   Available in our signature hues of Ayrton, a classic antique white, and our warm and sandy Sable, our elegant bedspread elevates any interior scheme with its timeless, handcrafted beauty. 

Creating an intimate connection with the natural world is something many of us seek in our homes and our daily lives, an aspiration that brings with it a sense of peace and wellbeing. Flinders Horizon, a stunning Mornington Peninsula project by Melbourne-based creative practice Mim Design, has achieved such an objective, utilising raw materials and soft layering to reflect the beauty and tactility of its environment.     Located within a dramatic, rugged setting in proximity to the ocean, the generous home sits comfortably in its surroundings, while the interior scheme introduces understated tonal variations to offer a balance of luxury and simplicity. Collaborating with BH Architects, Mim Design has embraced a soothing, pared-back palette to complement the building’s curved, organic lines, altogether forming a harmonious connection with the outdoor landscape.      The sumptuous texture and muted tones of our pure linen bedding and bath linen collections were the perfect accompaniment to this spacious and sun-drenched residence, featured recently on The Local Project. In the bedroom, the neutral tones of our handcrafted Flocca Linen Duvet and Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Kali evoke the sandy, undulating terrain outside, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing breathtaking views overlooking the ocean and allowing natural light to pour in.   Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet in Kali and Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Kali   In another bedroom, laidback layers of pure linen in our signature earthy hues of Petra and Roy drape gently against a backdrop of natural splendour, imbuing a contemporary coastal feel to this tranquil space. The influence of the home’s beautiful and untamed setting continues in the bunk room, where pieces from our Flocca range including our pure linen duvet, sheets and pillowcases in Mare, an oceanic hue that sits between green and blue, evoke the serenity of the sea.    Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet in Petra, Basix Linen Fitted Sheet in Petra, Flocca Linen Pillowcase Petra and Basix Linen Pillowcase in Roy     Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet, Basix Linen Fitted Sheet and Flocca Linen Pillowcases all in Mare.

As part of our Winter 2022 Lookbook, Earthy Dreamscape celebrates a gentle shifting of seasons, with warm, comforting layers of luxurious pure linen in hues evoking the romance of winter. Rich in softness and textural beauty, a palette of Rosa, Cep, Mare, Brun, Floss, Moro, and Sable combine harmoniously to create a bedroom sanctuary that is both grounding and heavenly.    Flocca Linen Duvet in Rosa and Flocca Linen Flat Sheet in Cep and Rosa. See Full scheme in Shop our Style here.   For this look, we took inspiration from French visual artist Eva Jospin’s installation ‘Silk Room’, created for the Dior Autumn-Winter 2021-2022 Haute Couture Show at Musee Rodin in Paris, where the artist has used silk thread as well as hemp, linen and cotton to create an enchanting landscape. Embroidered entirely by hand, the work pays tribute to both the Embroidery Room at the Colonna Palace in Rome and to Virginia Woolf’s feminist manifesto A Room of One’s Own.     ‘An invitation to contemplation and imaginary journeys; a moment suspended in time where illusion enhances reality’       Eva Jospin's fanciful creation references utopian landscapes and monuments inspired by 18th-century Capriccios, forests, lianas, rocks and waterfalls, and places conducive to reverie and strolling, like the follies of baroque gardens. In a similar way, Earthy Dreamscape evokes a soothing outdoor landscape reflecting nature’s exquisite palette. Our clay pink Rosa and whisper-soft Floss lend warmth and feminity to lush, verdant Armee, while Moro and Brun invite richness to subtle, classic neutrals Cep and Sable.    Our dreamy winter look also draws inspiration from a luxurious ski chalet designed by Ken Fulk, nestled in the mountains of Vail, Colorado. Created with a storybook sense of wonder, the interiors are an imaginative balance of playfulness and sophistication. In the bathroom, a whimsical forest mural by American artist Rafael Arana conjures otherworldly landscapes, while in the cosy game room and bar, sumptuous draperies envelop the space to create the feeling of a lavish tent.           Informed by these reflective visions and artisan qualities, Earthy Dreamscape offers effortless elegance and understated luxury, from our delicately embroidered Basix Linen Quilt to our indulgent Crush Double Linen Throw. Timeless and versatile, each masterfully handcrafted piece will imbue your bedroom with an enduring style that transcends all seasons.     Crush Double Linen Throw in Kali/Petra, Crush Linen Throw in Armee, Basix Stripe Linen Cushion in Mare/Bere and Flocca European Linen Pillowcase in Floss.   Pink shadows move softly across the setting sun. Calm skies, dramatic as the darkness of night draws in. Foraged berries. A cosy cottage on the edge of a forest, a whisper of sea spray and crashing waves in the distance.   Shop Earthy Dreamscape Style here.                Crush Double Linen Throw in Floss/Moro and Basix Linen Quilt in Sable.

A rich history Luxuriously soft and highly absorbent, there is no better fabric to envelop yourself in after a relaxing shower or bath than sumptuous pure linen. As one of the world's most ancient textiles, the traditional use of linen towels in Scandinavian bathhouses demonstrates linen’s ability to bring a tranquil, spa-like experience to your bathroom and a nurturing sense of hygge to your daily self-care routine.    Flocca Linen Face Towel in Sable.  Beyond its presence in Nordic spa rituals, the story of linen is interwoven with ancient Mediterranean civilisations from Egypt to Italy, evoking a sense of laidback luxury and artisan craftsmanship. Considered regal and refined, the lengthy and skillful process of making linen meant that it was often reserved for the wealthy while being regarded as a symbol of purity.   Beauty meets functionality While linen is favoured by stylists and designers for its sumptuous texture and classic style, its aesthetic appeal is matched by its practical benefits. Offering the convenience of being easy to care for, our pure linen towels require no more than a simple warm machine wash and medium tumble dry. Requiring no ironing and being quick to dry, pure linen towels are a low maintenance essential.    Flocca Linen Bath Towel and Bath sheet in Armee. Our 100% pure European linen towels are almost exceptionally dense, offering superior absorbency and breathability and making them one of the most premium linen towels on the market. The pure linen waffle weave also features gentle exfoliating properties, rejuvenating the skin by removing dead skin cells and encouraging new cell growth.

We have long admired the work of interior designer Georgina Jeffries, whose portfolio exudes timeless elegance and functional beauty. Based in coastal Victoria, Georgina has an innate ability to balance colour and texture harmoniously, eschewing trends in favour of enduring style.     With this emphasis on craftsmanship and designing rich, tactile and nurturing spaces, we are delighted that Georgina has chosen to feature pieces from our pure linen range in a number of her projects, with our signature muted hues and sumptuous textural appeal complementing the designer’s thoughtfully curated interiors.     Throughout the elegant and stately Brae House, a 1920s Toorak residence, Georgina has achieved a feeling of contemporary calm through her expert use of light and colour, with a palette of muted, moody blues creating cohesion from one room to the next. In the bedroom, our Flocca Linen Duvet Cover and pillowcases in Roy, a dusty cornflower hue, are layered over sheets and pillowcases in our mid-grey tone Tempest for beautiful tactile appeal, evoking classic charm and modern sensibilities.     Featuring: Flocca Linen Duvet in Roy, Sheets in Tempest and Flocca Linen Pillowcases in Roy and Tempest.

You may have noticed various beautiful, rich tones of mulberry, plum and burgundy making an appearance in the interior design world in recent years, however these gorgeous hues are more than a passing trend. In addition to their discernible aesthetic appeal, these sumptuous and inviting shades are highly versatile, transcending all seasons and coordinating harmoniously with a wide range of colours to stunning effect.  Our much loved Moro is our softened, muted mulberry shade, designed to mix and match exquisitely with our signature range of subdued, earthy hues. Moro pairs perfectly with both cool and warm shades – we particularly love it layered with our rich toffee tone Brun – and can instantly add vibrancy and a depth of character to a neutral palette. Mulberry is used by stylists and interior designers to imbue timeless yet statement-making colour to any space, from deep and rich shades to subtle and subdued variations.     Flocca Bedhead 'Short' in Moro, Flocca Body Cushion in Moro, Crush Double Throw in Moro/Floss.   In Sally Caroline's Palladiana Party makeover project, the designer took inspiration from the Melbourne bayside building's heritage as well as the owner's joyous and bold personality when she enlisted soft, muted tones including deep wine hues, pairing them with pink, green and gold to create a sense of playfulness and breathe new life into the historic home.     Palladiana Party, Interiors by Sally Caroline. Published in Belle Magazine and Est Living.   In Flack Studio's thoughtful interior design project that involved making over a 1930s Spanish mission beachfront home in Elwood, the designers introduced rich shades of mulberry everywhere from the walls to the carpet. Anything but traditional, the deep, sophisticated hue makes a style statement in the powder room, with mulberry tones offset by marble surfaces and warm, ambient lighting, proving that this shade can be both classic and modern.     Elwood Residence by Flack Studio.

As travel becomes a growing possibility for many of us, our thoughts are turning to slow days spent lounging poolside, strolling through secluded gardens, cool evenings cosied up by a warm fireplace, a deep and restorative soak complete with botanical bath salts. And finally, retiring to our very own luxurious, king-sized bed and feeling the sumptuous texture of pure linen sheets against our skin.      Págo, located at the heart of Middleton on South Australia’s Fleurieu Peninsula, is the sanctuary we have been seeking. Just over an hour from Adelaide, the 19th-century stables-turned-luxury retreat feels a world away from the city, offering blissful accommodation that has been lovingly restored by owner and winemaker Rose Kentish with help of Adelaide-based interior architecture and design studio Fabrikate. Moments from the beach and with all the wonders of the Peninsula's south coast region to explore, Págo provides an inviting escape enriched with history and natural beauty.       Balancing traditional and modern touches, a strong emphasis has been placed on tonality and textures throughout the renovation of this heritage property – the original stone walls, though whitewashed, still reveal a bumpy, tactile quality. Featuring four stunning bedrooms nestled around a 20-metre pool and spa within an acre of private garden, the stables were built in the 1850s from local stone and handmade red bricks. Inside, guests can discover the owners’ private art collection, alongside secondhand pieces that Rose and her husband, Sam Harrison, have discerningly gathered over the years.    Hale Mercantile Co. featured: Flocca Duvet in Moro, Nox Sheets and Pillowcases in Nox and Tempest.   In fitting with Págo’s rustic yet refined aesthetic, Rose found HMCo’s pure linen bedding a natural choice for the property's four luxurious, private bedrooms. From the muted mulberry of Moro and the warm caramel and toffee tones of Carmel and Brun, to the grey and black melange of Kali and Nox, our signature soothing, earthy hues and unsurpassed textural appeal are the perfect complements to the building's handcrafted timber features and stonework, as well as accenting the interior’s ambient, understated elegance.     Hale Mercantile Co. featured: Duvet in Kali, Camel Sheets and pillowcases in Carmel and Brun. This carefully considered approach caught the eye of popular publication Broadsheet, whose feature on the idyllic stay highlights the many personal touches honouring craftspeople both near and far – delicate, hand-blown lamps and thrown ceramics from Jam Factory can be found beside handmade shower tiles from Morocco. Along with the décor, Págo’s furnishings and materials – including furniture made by Sam and finished at Adelaide family business St Morris Upholsterers – have been thoughtfully chosen to work harmoniously with the landscape and the building's original, character-filled details.  A beautiful, tranquil setting coupled with all the modern conveniences – not to mention a complimentary bottle of wine – will ensure guests leave Págo feeling calm and restored, perhaps even with a dream of creating their own soothing sanctuary at home.

It was a pleasure to work with the wonderfully talented Glen Johnson on the hit series, Nine Perfect Strangers, now streaming on Hulu, with the set decorator choosing Hale Mercantile Co linen to style the luxurious, light-filled bedrooms featured throughout the show.  Based on the novel of the same name by Australian author Liane Moriarty, whose bestselling book Big Little Lies was adapted for TV by HBO, the eight-part series stars Nicole Kidman and Melissa McCarthy as well as numerous Australian actors including Asher Keddie and Samara Weaving.      The story is centred around luxury wellness retreat Tranquillum House, where things are not all as they seem. Masha, played by Nicole Kidman, is the retreat's intense yet unnervingly calm leader, while nine guests who have come for a 10-day stay in the hopes of healing their trauma and becoming the best version of themselves are guided and manipulated by the ethereal guru's questionable methods.        Although the series was originally set to take place amidst the stunning natural beauty of California's Big Sur, COVID-19 led to production company Made Up Stories (the same team behind Big Little Lies) relocating the cast and crew to Australia one month before they were due to start work. Filming then commenced at two picturesque properties in the Byron Bay hinterland – 22-acre wellness and yoga retreat Soma and sustainable timber plantation Lune De Sang.     The high-end set design received plenty of attention, with a write-up in Architectural Digest detailing the timber and glass interiors and lush, green landscape. In the article, Johnson describes the setting as having a 'mid-century modern meets zen vibe', while both locations were decorated with 'classic mid-century furnishings and lush linens' to soften up the spaces. The set also features locally made artwork and ceramics.    A relaxed, resort style is achieved by layering our signature Flocca range of bedding in various hues including the rich, earthy rust of Russo and the muted gold of Maiz, which fit seamlessly into Tranquillum's warm and serene rainforest surrounds. The bedroom of Melissa McCarthy's character, romance writer Frances, features our Flocca Linen Duvet Cover in Russo, with accents of Maiz and Brun, no doubt chosen strategically by Masha to evoke a deep and restorative night's sleep.      In another scene, grieving mother Heather, played by Asher Keddie, rolls around in a bed layered with HMCo pieces in tones of Brun and Sable, enjoying the cool touch against her skin. 'These sheets are so good... They're really cool on my skin,' she says, and while it may be the psychedelics talking, we're pretty sure Asher would appreciate the sumptuous, tactile pleasure of pure linen in any setting.     Visit Shop Our Style to discover the exquisite pure linen pieces that are adored by stars, designers and decorators alike.

As a brand committed to quality craftsmanship and purposeful design, we felt an instant affinity with this considered refurbishment project by Studio Esteta, set against the stunning background of Victoria's Mornington Peninsula. The thoughtful renovation of an existing Merchant Builders home celebrates the region's deep history and works harmoniously with the surrounding landscape. Central to the space is a light-drenched living area, where glazed windows take in sweeping views of the property and create a fluid connection between the interior architecture and the natural beauty outside. The clever layout is complemented by a palette of warm timbers and textured stone and paving, with an acute attention to detail in both aesthetics and function seeing the project shortlisted as a finalist in the 2021 TDF + Laminex Design Awards.     Set in this raw environment and demonstrating a sensitive balance of rustic and refined, the rich, earthy tones of our Armee and Russo bedding proved to be the perfect fit for the project. Much like the way the palette and materials chosen by Studio Esteta mimic the textures and tones of the rolling paddocks and farmland, the deep khaki of our Armee bedding is reminiscent of lush, remote pastures. Evoking the calm of a wide and verdant landscape, the pairing of Armee with the rich rust tone of Russo imbues the bedroom with an effortless elegance that reflects its natural surroundings.     The spacious, rural home also features our pure linen range in the living area, where our Flocca Linen Cushion in Russo and our Crush Linen Throw in Brun blend in impeccably while adding a touch of luxurious comfort. A beautifully rich toffee tone, Brun's subtle melange offers a further layer of textural appeal to the room when draped loosely over the lounge.     With carefully selected finishes enriching the home with warmth and depth, this design project exemplifies an enduring style that is both modern and timeless.

Ancient and innate used for centuries in architecture, marble undoubtedly represents a token of wealth and grandeur. Cut and honed, it is still regarded as a very desirable material in modern design. This age, with modern export capacities, the options of unique colours and veins from all over the world are at our finger tips, allowing global designers to push the boundaries on traditional marble uses and styles past just bathrooms and kitchens. Even so, while this amazing material is durable, multipurpose and creates exceptional visions of work, the negatives are that it can have a cold, hard and sometimes ridged aesthetic. Without complementary partner finishes and styling, it can lack warmth in a residential setting.   To outweigh the negatives, designers source warm and reflective lighting and an engrossing elements of texture such as European linen.    European linen has been handcrafted through the ages offering an unsurpassed relaxed textural appeal. We feature to you, the perfect juxtaposition between both elements. Our revered Australian design firms are showcasing the the opportunity to soften a space with pure linen bath waffle whilst maintaining the integrity of the room.   Pure linen is not only a style to covet, it is also a respectful nod to one of the oldest architectural materials by being an ancient material itself; with production technique hardly altered for hundreds of years. Enhance your bathroom with our pure waffle bath towels, available in four sizes and a range of muted, earthy and luxurious tones.   Photo credit: Flack Studios (Image 1 and 4)The Local Project (Image 2)Est Living (Image 3)

A mecca for an array of award winning wineries and restaurants, however our feature this week, Log Box in Red Hill, implores you to take a back seat to the hive of activity. In true sense of seeing the beauty in all things, Chloe Burgess and her husband identified dilapidated dairy sheds on their Red Hill acreage as an opportunity for a conversion to boutique, unique accommodation. With rolling views extending out to Western Port Bay, the two converted cabins offer an intimate, minimalist retreat where guests are encouraged to reconnect with each other and the landscape around them.     Remaining true to its authenticity and environment, the original timber truss roof and raw ply lining are prominent features that project warmth and an intimate, cosy atmosphere.

We are always delighted and intrigued by the beautiful spaces that our pure linen collection goes to feature in. So much so that we have decided to bring you style and inspiration from those that we consider to be our Style Sirens.This week we find ourselves again in a playground for the humble…as well as the rich and famous; Byron Bay. Somewhere in the middle of the contrast we have been caught in the luxurious charm of a quintessential Australian beach side guest house, 28 Degrees.   This family run guest house oozes a bare foot repose, with its classic timber panelling, and lush tropical gardens. No comfort has been spared in this fresh white walled wonderland of luxury accommodation. Boasting a somewhat understated approach to styling, yet uncompromised attention provided to the details of each room.     Known for its eco-conscious attitude, there are considerations such as low toxic paints, recycled timber floorboards, cleverly positioned windows for air circulation and the family even donate unused toiletries and food to local charities.     Rooms within the guest house are adorned with Hale Mercantile Co. pure European linen in playful yet romantic tones of Floss and Fog. Each bed framed by our versatile Flocca linen slip bedhead, the Flocca edging is a delicate contribution to the simple luxury of each room.     You won’t find tightly tucked sheets and piles of cushions to navigate. On the contrary, scrumptious relaxed layers of breathable linen and the comfort of the generous Flocca body cushion is enough to dial down to the beach excitement and turn your attention to a good book. The inclusion of the Kristine range of bed linen adds just the right balance between beach house and a hint of old world romance. Our Pastel hues of Floss, Fog and Sable are grounded with darker hues in Tempest and Nox encapsulating the tranquility associated with the beautiful accommodation and the town it is situated in.

This week we nestle into The Repose, a historic cottage escape the rural NSW town of Dubbo by Saddler and Co's Jemima Alridge. Originally a humble worker’s cottage built in 1904, Jemima sought to weave elements of modern style side by side with heritage inspiration in the meticulous renovation. The result is a thoughtful space that exudes quintessential Australian charm and invites a sense of connection and a place to rest your senses.     With a nod to the European heritage that shapes the country, the original features of the cottage have been preserved and complemented with the renovation. The high timber ceilings and original timber flooring have been rejuvenated with a simple white lime finish. Artisan elements such as handcrafted tiles, antiques and brass and the inclusion of pure European bed linen and accessories have shaped a space that welcomes connection, rest and comfort.     Subtle links of the past and the environment intertwine through each room.

Styling has been purposely left unfussed,relaxed and understated.   The Lane’s underpin a strong ethos and commitment to giving back tothe environment and community. They own three properties in the region,including The Farm, - a working farm with a collection of micro-businesses,each share the same ethos with traditional and sustainable practices.However, their work in the sustainability space is not limited to theseproperties, with the recent completion of The Beach House East Coast,an event space for retreats and conscious conferencing - proceedsfrom this venue benefit their environmental trust.

The dining table in any home is a place of communication and connection which we believe should exude a true sense of ‘home’. Whether a time for celebration, entertaining during the festive season, or simply when the family takes a moment to come together at the end of a day, take the opportunity to create your own sense of style in the focal point of your home. As the weather warms up and the yard comes alive to the tune of chirping birds, embrace the change and open your doors to friends and family. Of course, don’t forget to enjoy what culinary delights the change of season will bring! Our entertaining table style is considered sophistication, enhanced with a nod to the pinks hues and tones that has been featuring heavily on the European summer tables.     Pure European Linen – it goes without saying, the functional and style staple of your table is the quality, pure linen tablecloths, runners and napkins. Be playful with hues of soft blush, paired with intensified pinks. Our choice of the season is our Rosa and Moro, complemented by accent colours of rich blue and greens, such as Armee or Fonda.       A touch of imperfection – the iconic handmade ceramic collection of Astier de Villatte will bring the perfectly-imperfect to your table. Centuries of artisans handiwork in each captivating ceramic piece. A must have indulgence.     Mismatched vessels – composition is the trick to incorporating different shapes and textures. Consider ripple vases or glasses paired with earthy stoneware or ceramics.       Coffee table books for the dining table – the magic of inspired food photography in the joy of a hardback recipe book, gracing your table. Cookbooks have transformed into artwork for your table.   Understated greenery – the finishing touches are the most accessible, located in your garden (or neighbour’s)! Forage for Eucalyptus branches, sheoak or pine foliage to delicately fill your table vase.

We are always delighted and intrigued by the beautiful spaces that our pure linen collection goes to feature in. So much so that we have decided to bring you style and inspiration from those that we consider to be our Style Sirens. This week we have our eye on L’Atelier, a light filled character apartment located in Daylesford, on the foothills of the Great Dividing Range.     Referencing Parisian style where vintage treasures are complemented with modern pieces, L'Atelier also honours the old world, country heritage that is the popular weekend getaway of Daylesford. Located only an hour and a half out of Melbourne, but with the vibe of worlds away, Daylesford has long been known as a place of escape and rejuvenation, as well as its healing properties with its famous mineral waters. L’Atelier is laden with charm and style, with the tasteful detail of the 1940’s style kitchen and heritage architectural features, the space has been thoughtfully considered for the needs of the guests. White walls and dark furniture is complemented and softened with the use of light timber, while sisal carpet gives warmth and insulation while maintaining the vintage aesthetic.     Each room has been considerately styled with vintage prints and artwork, delicate lighting and completed with the texture and tone only achieved with Hale Mercantile Co. pure linen bedding and linen accessories.     An emphasis has been placed on pure linen layering, by loosely overlapping and additions of mixed and matched linen cushions and pillows. The addition of our bold stripe line pillowcases is a nod to the old world, while the boldness of Russo adds a rich buzz that is often associated with the historic town.     L’Atelier would not be complete without the assistance of Bell Hemming-Bright on re-styling the property.

Indulging in colour when styling or renovating need not be intimidating. Layering complementary or contrasting hues can completely transform the atmosphere of a room and by selecting the right tones, it can do more than create a beautiful aesthetic, it can also influence your emotion and character. We are delighted to be featured in the new Smooth Impasto campaign by Porter’s Paints, which focuses on the transformative qualities of colour in interior styling. The brand has recently released an exquisite selection of rich colours in their range, which ‘drive to create spaces that reflect our individuality and personal expression,' says Porter’s Paints. With sumptuous colours ranging from ‘a rich Grenache tone to a verdant green, terracotta, burnished red’, we love the natural and textural finish that is only achieved with a quality paint such as Porter’s Paints.     Sharing like views of texture and sophistication and a nonpareil palette, our pure linen bedding features timelessly, incorporating the lush greens of Armee throughout our pure linen bedding with the romantic touch of Rosa. Styled to perfection by the talented Heather Nette King and shot flawlessly by Mike Baker. Porter’s Paints and Hale Mercantile Co., a partnership like no other!

A quaint historic post office, transformed into a beautiful and modern abode without losing any of the original period charm. Located in the quiet seaside town of Port Fairy and originally constructed in 1881, this stunning Bluestone building is the perfect example of how beautiful historical architecture can be recontextualised to work within a modern society. Stepping inside this impeccably styled space, it’s no surprise to find it’s home to Hale Mercantile Co.’s very own Sharon Patsiotis.     The unique period architectural details such as detailed doorframe panels and tall archways are complimented by the eclectic mix of antique decorative pieces, art, taxidermy, and of course Hale Mercantile linen bedding, accessories and furniture.       This beautiful home was recently featured in the June/July issue of Elle magazine, where Sharon provides a personal insight into her inspiration for the space, and the significance the coastal area has for her and her family.     Her own unique style and penchant for antiques works seamlessly throughout the space, as she explains ‘Today’s families are drawn to open-plan living, but I’ve always loved the charm of a small space for showcasing decorative pieces that don’t work in large living areas’     Photography by Shannon Mcgrath
