Today, we're looking back at #TheMakers tour with contemporary artist @carolinewallsart in her minimal Melbourne home. 💫
Renowned for her minimalistic renderings of the female form, Caroline Walls has carved her name as one of Australia's most prominent and revered contemporary artists.
In the same vein as her artworks and former Victorian terrace, Caroline's affinity for muted, earthy tones permeates the interior of her new home in Melbourne which she shares with wife Emma Hill and their two daughters. The calming abode is restrained in its palette and styling choices, functioning as a warm sanctuary for the young family and a place for Caroline to create. "I’ve looked to find a balance so that I can still enjoy a space that highlights my love of art and muted, neutral tones," she says.
Texture, shapes, and a layered composition of tones play a key role in the success of this home's aesthetic which would otherwise be lacklustre with such little variance in colour. The incorporation of a sisal rug, rattan chairs, and ceramics in the open-plan living/dining room inject the space with warmth and visual interest, while handsome Charcoal linen in the bedroom ties in elegantly with the bold, dark accents seen throughout the home's décor and her charcoal drawings.
