We were a little spoiled for choice when putting together Issue 05 of The Design Files Magazine.
There were simply too many beautiful Australian homes to choose from, so we did what felt like the only sensible thing: we included MORE. The result is our biggest issue yet!
Inside, you’ll find interior designer Leigh Ellwood’s dreamy Scandi-style cottage in Fitzroy, filled with pieces she’s collected (and had shipped) from the Nordic countries over the past decade — an impressive exercise in both excellent taste and faith in the postal system.
We visit the bold 1860s home of two Melbourne restaurateurs, take a peek inside design legend Vince Frost’s Northern Beaches home, and head to North Warrandyte to discover a beautiful stone-and-log house with an artistic legacy of its own.
We also explore the missing middle in Australian housing, travel to Quinkan Country to discover ancient art, and ask what human creativity might look like in this new era of AI.
And, of course, there’s SO much more. Pre-order The Design Files Magazine Issue 05 here (or subscribe and get 20% off!) to receive an early copy before it officially hits stores on October 26 (discover our stockists and read the FAQs).
