Just when you thought we'd left you hanging... we're back!!! Our BIG REVEAL of House 13 STARTS NOW and she's our biggest project yet!
We're kicking off Episode One with the Pool and Pool house. We created this to be the ultimate entertaining space that doubles as a guest house when the party kicks on and the friends and fam stay over.
Read MoreWhen you have the luxury of size on your side and love to entertain friends and family, like Louisa, multiple living spaces are a fab feature on your floor plan.
We’re massive fans of open-plan living for the way it brings families together so, we loved Lou’s vision of creating two lounge rooms that flow on from each other, without being separated by doors.

We hear you, gang! Sometimes when we’re renovating it seems like there’s a constanbattle against the budget, but when it comes to styling your home you don’t need to fret.
We’re big fans of freedom for furnishings because they’ve got a huge range of gorgeous products that won’t break the bank.
Watch how Bonnie styled the lounge in House 9, from sofas to sideboards, console tables, rugs and ba-zillions of cushions, we found it all at freedom.

Read MoreWell, the secret of our first ever collaboration is out and you guys are good…. hands up if you picked the homeowner and collaborator of our next project? Sophie Bell aka @peppahart
Soph’s Instagram tags have been going off the Richter scale over the past few weeks as you sneaky peeps have guessed she’s the other half of our #threebirdsxpeppahart collab.
Read MoreWhen it comes to the way we like to live in our homes, Sophie and I are kindred spirits. We both love beautiful interiors and we want them to be used and enjoyed by friends and family, the more the merrier. Lana will tell you this is her worst nightmare in her shoe-free home, but what’s a few muddy feet between friends! #orchocolateonthewhitesofa
Read MoreHot on the heels of The Hinterland Hideaway’s kitchen reveal, let's take a look at what's on the other side of that huge open-plan space.
Sophie and her family love to entertain so there’ll be no shortage of places for friends and fam to sit, chat and relax in this #mediterraneanfarmhouse, that's #fosho!
Read MoreSo, we were chatting the other day and Bonnie went and dropped the BIG question. What’s my favourite room in her dream home? That’s a pretty tough one… like who’s your favourite child or what’s your favourite meal. Ask me next week and I’m sure my answer will be different to today! Hang on, make it pizza, cold pizza… even it’s bad it’s good.
Read MoreI’ve always had a soft spot for the coast. Some of my fondest memories are of family holidays spent at the beach. And there’s no denying that those times had a big impact on my inspiration for my dream home. Even way back then I remember looking at all the big, white, coastal homes and thinking they were so beautiful. My dream home was always going to be white weatherboard, with palm trees, water glimpses and casual furnishings with pops of luxe.
Read MoreGuys, it’s this simple... ditch the TV and the kids will be out of your Adults’ Retreat faster than I chug down my first coffee of the day. Believe me, you’ll have the room to yourselves in no time! #funnybuttrue
The only problem in my house is that my husband’s not that sold on the no TV idea either. And without him, the ‘Nathan and Bonnie room’ becomes just the ‘Bonnie room’, and where’s the fun in that? Actually, don’t answer that – sounds like plenty fun to me 😉What’s he not getting about that amazing Spanish Door print (link) where the TV ‘should’ be? And what about all the D&Ms we could have lying back on those dreamy sofas sans TV blaring… #notgonnahappen
The main living room is always going to be the most used room in our house. It’s a gorgeous open space, surrounded by so much natural light. Yeah, so much that my Mum insists on wearing her sunglasses while she relaxes on the lounge.
I wanted this room to be totally casual and inviting, but totally chic. Think relaxed but luxe… that’s a thing, right? Let’s call it ‘re-luxe’… sounds a bit like reflux. Urgh, no. But you get what I mean! This room needs to be comfy enough to relax in but durable enough for boys of all sizes to throw themselves on the lounge, put their feet up and relax while we watch a movie.
Read MoreHow do you create a coastal lifestyle when you're nowhere near the coast?
Rule #1 - create water views ... from every room
Rule #2 - strategically place palm trees ... like they were chess pieces
Rule #3 - hang a floating day bed .... for that Mrs-Sippy-Bali-Vibe
Rule #4 - create a white-out .... to rival a blizzard at Thredbo
Rule #5 - make sure there's enough seating ... for 200 people
This week's episode reveals one of my FAVE rooms in the house... my URBAN MUD ROOM! Positioned right inside the front door this room had to be all about first impressions. We had to create that Santorini-vibe from the moment you walked through the front door... BUT it also needed to be super functional to accommodate all the shoes, school bags and sandy feet.
Read MoreStyling can be a daunting task, even for those of us who have a natural eye for it, like Bonnie... and styling lounge rooms can be one of the more difficult spaces to do well - there are just so many questions to answer:
