Shortlisted - Residential Interior Curation
Simone Haag was engaged to ‘improve on perfection’ by way of furnishing an Ernest Fooks designed mid-century modern gem in Melbourne’s Caulfield North.
‘House of Grace’ as we call it is the family home of Melbourne Fashion trailblazer Ilana Moses, who describes the house and its decoration as ‘understated glamour’. One of the most exciting parts of the process was that the combination of fashion and furnishings. “Ilana has a great eye and we were able to walk the line between art and design” says Simone. She is a discerning client so we could go down the path of merging sculpture, furniture and art. Not knowing where one starts and the other finishes.
‘I just love the way it feels all year round,’ says Ilana. ‘Whether it’s pouring outside or the sun is shining, being in the home makes us happy.’
