Rural Design

From her delightful studio tucked into the property of her renovated school house in Appila, South Australia, Jane creates in a truly rural environment. Having lived and worked in rural towns for over 30 years, Jane understands the importance of design in a rural setting.

A rural home is often passed down to the next generation, and the idea of embracing that history is something so vital to understanding a home in the country. As the next generation move in to the master bedroom, its an acknowledgment of stepping into the family lead. With a new matriarch in tow the new aesthetic is so important in welcoming her into the family. But the age and wisdom of the walls needs to be honoured. That fine and careful balance is a honed skill.
