“You’re more excited to get to work if you love your office” – Fashion Illustrator, Kerrie Hess
Home office of Amy Phelan
Design Note: Art collectors and philanthropists, Amy and her husband John transformed their dark dated Aspen chalet into a light and modern art-filled home. As only the seventh woman on the 29-member Guggenheim board, it’s no surprise that feng shui to Amy is facing a large piece of art!
Home office of Tory Burch
Design Note: The home office of fashion mogul Tory Burch brims with bright colour and creative spirit! Her Manhattan home is substantial and elegant however she still manages to make her office feel inviting and relaxed with a mix of unique pieces, family photos and treasured keepsakes from her travels.
Home office of Kerrie Hess
Design Note: Renowned international fashion illustrator Kerrie Hess transformed her Queenslander home into a chic Parisian-inspired abode. “When I found this house, the walls were yellow and the flooring was orange. There were beautiful old Queenslander details in every corner and I couldn’t wait to just paint the whole place bright white, sand back the floors to the original wood and stain them a glossy dark walnut!”
Hess’s beautiful pieces are virtually on every wall, along with chic chandeliers, antique mirrors and piles of beautiful coffee table books. Although most of her work is in fashion illustration, Kerrie has always had a penchant for interiors too. “I use only brushes and watercolour now – women are still the main focus of my work, but a beautiful interior adds so much to the image.”
Home office of Waldo Fernandez
Design Note: Acclaimed interior designer Waldo Fernandez has filled his Beverly Hills residence with an enviable collection of definitive design pieces and contemporary art. Significant accents, such as this 17th century Belgian tapestry brings texture and drama into the room.
Home office of Eleanor Pendleton
Design Note: Eleanor Pendleton is the Founder of Gritty Pretty, an interactive online magazine dedicated to beauty. Pendleton lives in a light filled renovated terrace house in Mosman that she’s filled with treasures, new and old! Pendleton decided to keep the space clean and minimalist choosing to invest in key pieces such as these beautiful and unusual chairs.
Home office of Alexandra von Furstenberg
Design Note: California based contemporary furniture designer Alexandra Von Furstenberg (Diane von Furstenberg’s daughter in law) is well known for her colourful neon acrylic home furniture and accessory creations. After leaving DvF fashion house, Alexandra moved to Los Angeles and focused on her passion – designing for the home. It’s no surprise her home office is filled with an enviable selection of custom acrylic pieces and breathtaking art, such as this underwater photographic print by Kim Keever.
Home office of Garance Doré
Design Note: Streetstyle photographer, writer and illustrator, Garance Doré was one of the original fashion bloggers back in 2006!
Today, Dore is a global fashion icon and seemingly the advocate-in-chief of Parisian chic in the US, where she now lives. Her home office reflects the characteristically nonchalant French style: a clean, neutral and contemporary space with her inspirational illustrations peppered on the surrounding walls.
Home office of Ralph Lauren
Design Note: Ralph Lauren’s home office is exactly what you’d expect from this all-American fashion and furniture designer. The result is a perfectly put together gentleman’s home office filled with masculine dark colours, leather furniture, metallics, sports memorabilia and substantial proportions.
