Together Annique Heesen of Gezellig Interiors and Lisa Buck the Marketing and Interior design guru at Thorne Group have worked on a number of projects with the latest being the new Thorne Group show home. The home was designed by Thorne Group Architecture and built by Thorne Group. The Thorne Group is renowned for their architectural designs, market leading interiors and superior quality, and once again their latest show home at the Lakes does not disappoint.
We took five to find out what inspired their latest choices and what they chose for their flooring and why...
What was your design inspiration behind your interior decorating choices in the show home?
We wanted to do something that was bold and pushed the boundaries a little bit, whilst still being warm and welcoming, we looked to a lot of Parisian and European design influences.
What do you love most about the new show home?
It feels really homely and sophisticated while still being quite bold In its form, we love that the exterior is neutral and soft whilst the interior is slightly more serious.
Top three design picks from the show home?
The floor to ceiling steel and reeded glass door has to be a favourite, it was a risk but one that paid off!
The gorgeous Callacata gold marble backsplash
The warmth the cedar spine wall brings to the living and dining
What flooring choices did you choose and why?
We chose Cavalier Bremworth's 100% wool carpet Samurai in the colour Kawa. This carpet was chosen for the lounge space as a showcase statement of tranquility. Samurai has a chunky loop which offers a luxurious texture underfoot.
Siren Ena again by Cavalier Bremworth. This is a really amazing product made entirely from recycled plastics including fishing nets recovered from the oceans. Siren Ena was selected for all other areas of the home for softness underfoot combined with performance benefits of this product and suited to busy family living.
We wanted to choose sustainable products that had texture and warmth and reflected the quality of the home.
