With its unexpected injections of startling rich blue against dove grey and pale placid surfaces, director at design practice Mim Design, Charlotte McGill, says this house in Melbourne’s Prahran was inspired by what was right in front of them: their client. “Jan has an effortless elegance. She wears beautiful clothes but simply: jeans and a fresh shirt. She’s very polished but also one of our coolest clients.
Conceptually, the house epitomises this perfect pairing of effortless elegance with chic modernity. Our keywords on this project were sophisticated, refined and inviting,” says
