I love a good, quirky home! I feel like with all of the cookie cutter “sameness” we see each day on many social media platforms, it’s nice to see a real home for once that is highly personal, creative and shows a real joy and passion for living. This is the way Australian fashion designer Arabella Ramsay lives and I find it really refreshing. Have a look and see her sunny, happy home below.

Fashion Designer's Quirky Colorful Home

Arabella comes from a family of artists and creatives, but it was her mother who loved sewing when she was a child, that inspired her the most to be a fashion designer. After years spent in the industry amassing quite a following in Australia, Arabella and her family relocated out of the city to live in a colorful home with their two little girls. She also opted out of the fashion industry for awhile so she could focus her energy on parenting, but also, to accept only small, special projects. She was able to keep this pace for some time, however, fashion called to her once again so she launched a line, this time with her illustrator father, called Dougal.

Aside from the North African touches combined with the obvious Aussie coastal flair, I like that Arabella’s house is so special to her and her family because it’s unique. It’s personal and interesting to look at and I like that. Sometimes I find magazines and the internet to show a lot of the same things – Instagram has become almost cookie cutter – so many people are starting to look and decorate and take photographs in the same way. It’s refreshing to take a step away from all of that for a moment to see something totally different. Don’t you think?
