It's so exciting when I find a new designer who instantly appeals on every level - practicality, colour, originality, design and Australian made! At Watermelon Red, supporting home grown heroes is just as important as providing the latest homeware design trends. We have so much talent in this country and with a little bit of fossicking the most amazing finds can be unveiled.

My latest discovery is Ella and Sofia, a textile and wallpaper design company who is flourishing in their hometown of Sydney. I think it's about time we show them off to the Sunshine Coast. What do you think?

 
 


I love their bold use of colour and design and their philanthropic endeavours for the environment and the less fortunate through their 'Vinnies Fabric Take Back' Scheme is truly admirable. Definetly an Australian Design Hero.
