Summer may still be in full swing (in fact, it's only just arrived here in the UK!), but homeware brands have already started releasing details of their autumn-winter 2016 collections, and all sorts of interesting things have been popping up in my inbox over recent days. Here’s a round-up of my favourites so far… . . .
Home tour | A minimalist family house in Melbourne
It’s time for another home tour, and today I’m heading all the way over to Australia for a peek at this envy-inducing Melbourne pad. Set in the North Fitzroy district, it’s an excellent example of how small city spaces can be maximised to suit modern living.

Linnen | Berlin
A few weeks ago Chris and I hopped over to Berlin to celebrate / commiserate his 40th birthday.
