Feature Timber In Your Home

What better way to customise your home than with timber? It’s uses are endless and it has the ability to make a room organic or sexy, rustic or modern. In a nutshell, timber is fabulous and here’s how we’re featuring timber in our homes.

  • Railway sleepers: We used railway sleepers to line our boundary fence along our pool and alfresco. Contrasted with our timber decking it created seclusion and privacy whilst giving a modern and organic mood to our outdoor design. Oh and did i mention these were Mitch’s idea?
  • Timber look tiles – equally as awesome as timber. We used these as a feature wall throughout our home including the master en-suite and lounge and i have to say these are our favourite walls in the house and so sexy.

  • Decking in the garden – I felt this was a stroke of genius by builder Mitch in maximising space on a small lot and accentuated the “tropical” mood created in the landscaping.
  • Timber Ceilings – Ok i confess, i pulled this picture from instagram (thank you My House Idea) because i think this is just so hot, totally sexy and just screams luxury.

If you’ve found a creative use for timber in your home i would love for you to share it with us. Feel free to email me your pics @ elsa@mitchellcustomhomes.com.au or tag us on instagram @mitchellcustomhomes.

Hot For Copper

How hot are all the copper tones right now? When it comes to designing the interior of your home there’s no better way to bring an earthly organic feel especially given the “calming” properties of copper colours.

There is such a fantastic range of copper furnishings available right now but i’m particularly obsessed with copper pendant lights. They’ve been hanging about for over a year now but we still love them, so funky, fun and classy.

Lighting is such an essential in customising your home and a fantastic way to add some flair to your existing home. With the 6 star energy efficient ratings required now for new builds it is imperative to choose and select lights at the start of your building process. With houses now required to comply with the 6 star rating please be aware this is done at building approval stage and is based on what type of lights you have and how many as there are a certain amount of watts per/sqm allowed.

So after much online browsing to find the perfect copper pendants for our home, these are my favourites.
