I’m sure most Melbourne readers would know Melbourne’s vintage queen Lyn Gardener! Lyn’s wonderful shop Empire Vintage in Albert Park has long been a local favourite for everything rare, pretty and vintage – and she also has three AMAZING homes which you might have seen before in print or online (including a feature on Design*Sponge last year!). They’re truly incredible spaces, decorated to perfection by Lyn herself, and often used as locations by photographers, film makers and events companies. Each home has a very different personality from the next – There are 2 industrial-style spaces in Fitzroy… and her more recent project – The White House in Daylesford. How beauuuutiful!?? Lyn truly has the magic vintage/industrial touch!

The White House is not actually Lyn’s own home – but the good news is, it’s a guesthouse you can go and stay at! For more details please check out The White House website!

And stay tuned for shots of Lyn’s own super-girly-gorgeous home in Fitzroy this afternoon!

    Oh my goodness…I am hopelessly in love with that top bedroom and the first bathroom. I don't think I would ever leave the house if I lived there! Stunning.

    I am sure Lyn must need a caretaker to live in the garden room…..

    This has been on my travel wish list for a while. I want to spend an entire weekend there, just lolling about pretending it's mine!

    Particularly love the top bedroom and theliving room with the vintage union jack pillow. Perfection.

    Oh, it's so lovely. I actually won a penguin books competition (guessing how many popular penguin books were in that library) and stayed there last October. It was sublime.

    Thanks
