Designer’s Brief: Cherie Brown

Industry leading interior designer Fiona Gould creates a bespoke look for Cherie Brown's work of art.

“The rich, earthy palette and wild lines in this beautiful piece by Cherie Brown would make a wonderful focal point in a living or entry space, styled with references to the Australian landscape through a warm colour palette and mixed natural materials. The Arlex sofa from Space Furniture would be a perfect warm base for the room, and a vintage wooden stool from Pamono would add a touch of rustic, earthy texture. The Kijani Chair from St Barts has beautiful water-like movement without compromising a contemporary feel, and I would finish off the look with a travertine stone coffee table from Chelon. This space would feel relaxed, layered, and grounded.”
